My pharmacy is one of three Woodland Scenics kits I put together. The buildings are placed in the back of a corner where they are hardly noticed. 

Please show a small scene with people on your layout.

"Alan asked 5 or 6 Drivers would be nice"

Pennsy N1sa 2-10-2, hauled coal and ore to and from the lake ports.

More 5 or 6 drivered loco's please!

Rule 1: This is my railroad.

Rule 2: I make the rules.

Rule 3: Illuminating discussion of prototype history, equipment and operating practices is always welcome, but in the event of visitor-perceived anacronisms, detail descrepancies or operating errors, consult RULE 1!
