Thanks Kevin, but you forgot to bring the pictures along!

Jon Radder said: OK - Got out there and took a bunch of pictures. Here’s the best 7. Front view looking toward the track just above at Coal Dump Curve. On the large station I clipped off the funky signal mast making it into a vent and took the German station name off the sign board. The church bell support was pretty busted up, so I just eliminated the exposed bell…

Back across the track at Coal Dump Curve. Missing tiles from some of the peaks on this side was replaced with burgundy vinyl. The hole for a missing chimney was covered with flat black vinyl…

Thank you. Less than 4 hours invested (this year) in what you see in those pictures. The garden has really matured and copious amounts of rain have helped to make it look lush.

Those look awsome on the railroad. I espicaly like the little alpine/german style house. I need to get a couple of those for my line. There are enough places in the USA with european style buildings that they do not look out of place at all on your line. Love the lush garden. Mine will get there by next year, kind of raw looking right now, but its getting better. Mike
