I was wondering if anyone here has modeled a coal strip mine on their layout. Or has pictures of one. I'm thinking I would like to put one one my...
Thanks, I'm all with you on the cheap thing. But I find them to be far more convenient and I think they look better too.
Well it's been about a year since I was last here and have done any work on my layout (big life changes). I don't have the same space I had in my...
