A scene from a module created by my late friend Hans Hubner.
 

 Any more animals, please?

Cows qualify as animals, but no fire!

A herd of feral donkeys roam the canyons.

A family camps in a campsite for tents. Ferral donkeys roam

Show me more animals, or show me fire, fire, fire!

Bob

Is deer season open?

Here is my dairy farm.

 Because typing is a slow process for me I may not comment on all the good work on this thread but I enjoy seeing it.

Keep the critters coming.

Good day.

More animals, please.

The goats are helping with weed eradication, and being general pests while the railroad right-of-way beautification department plants a few trees.

Let's see more beasts of burden, or any animals...

If these horses had full harnesses and the teamster some reins, that horse in the foreground probably wouldn't have moved its head just as the picture was being taken...

Thank you, John! Embarrassed

Hey, we both have the same building in our photos! I simply painted mine white. I intend to add more weathering once the scene is closer to the finish line...

Here's one of the Hoffentoth Bros. delivery trucks, stuck at the crossing in Lowbanks...

 

That red structure, beyond the locomotive, is the local Hoffentoth Bros. coal elevator.

It's kind of small but the idea is not to store freight but get it out of the boxcar and into a truck as fast as possible.
