Rick,
Absolutely beautiful! Awesome work.
Brilliant work, amazing!
Alec.
Wow. That turned out great. Must have been a heck of a flood in '27. I see they managed to get the buildings cleaned up and pained at least once since then 
Nice build & great job on the details.
The bulletin board is a nice touch

Beautiful job Rick! Now you need tourist cabins so a body can stay awhile, fish & enjoy the ambiance. 
Wow, that really turned out great! I love the bulletin board, nice detail!
That high water mark is 'way cool! Good job!
Good looking project! Typical of the back woods in any one of several states in our country. It would look good ao any one of a number of RR I’ve seen.

Rick,
Which adhesive do you use to laminate the wood boards to the acrylic form? E-6000? Thanks.
Steve
Thanks everybody,
Glad you liked the project.
Richard,
My original plan was to include some cabins and carports like the old
“AutoCourts” from the 1920’s but room is always the primary factor.
I will put up some signs indicating that the cabins are located down the hill closer to the river.
Hi Steve,
Yes, E6000 seems to work really well. I have some structures built that way that have been
out in our mild climate for 2-3 years and are holding up well. I say mild because today, the
day before the first day of Fall, it is 106 this afternoon.
Thanks all,
Rick

All I can say is “Bad Ass”! Dude! Absolutely astounding craftsmanship! When I grow up I want to be half as good as you! Keep it up!
Rick Marty said:Weird... I used some to glue down the simulated tarpaper roofing on one of my buildings, and it started peeling within a couple months. I ended up using matte medium instead, haven't any trouble with that roof since then.

Hi Guys, Nothing new on the construction but just wanted to share this photo of Smith Camp from our Saturday night “Night Run”
Thanks for taking a look Rick
Oh, beautiful!
And very clever, tilting the camera like that. I’ve seen many “vacation” photos dating to the 20’s and 30’s where the amateur photographer didn’t quite get the camera level. Black and white, of course, not color. This is very reminiscent of that. Neat.

Another thread back from the dead. I had forgotten about this one, ran across it while looking for something else. Maybe someone will enjoy the build from 10 years ago.

Always a pleasure even when reviewing your older builds Rick. 
In my opinion, one of the best things about this new software is bringing back all of these old threads. It’s like a LOT of projects are going on - sure, they are not new, but in a way, they are VERY new to me. Nice work, Rick.

Rick,
I must say after finding, cutting and placing small pieces, I really like the idea you and @Bruce_Chandler Bruce use in building your whole model out of clear Perspex. Over the years how have they held up compared to other construction techniques? Any trouble with delamination?
Also, did the these shingles survive or have you replaced the roof with the Precision plastic product you told me about in December?
