    Alright guys, I think we have enough city vehicles on the scene for such a simple accident. Now I am just having too much fun with my new stuff and the diorama :) Now they are just showing off. I guess the ( Orange ) DPW, ( Department of Public Works ) should have a New stop sign in the back of one of their vehicles? I'll get on that soon!

    Is there even such a thing as 'having to much fun' while model railroading ? ????

    I dunno. I have a 'train budget'. I only get what I want when the funds are available. That way I don't have to face the wrath of THE WIFE if I didn't buy dog food for the dogs because I bought a few extra pieces of rolling stock I wanted right then and there instead ! ;):whistle::D

    And she should, the pets are almost always above the food chain over the spouse. It goes, in importance of order, the kids ( if there are any ), the grand kids, and even those have an order, the dogs or cats ( or both ), the other pets, fish, etc..., the house and it's decorations, maybe her vehicle, my point is the spouse is last :) It's a joke everyone, me thinks, or is it?

    Going back to having fun with trains, later :)

    So I was looking for a place for the diorama when I am not working on it. Used to be under one of my 2'x4' bases but won't fit with Gas Station etc... However it will fit under my new 55" television I bought last year. Now I do have to remove some items but not a big deal and I can look at it all the time now, even when not working on it on one of my hobby tables. Wow I just barely got lucky with the size. Who knew?

    Gonna add the felt feet to it so it won't scratch my New TV stand I bought when I got the TV. Need to add some Just Plug lighting eventually, and of course tweak it often, adding more detail etc... as I get it :) I was able to push my TV back more so now I can keep the structures I have on it. Still have to set the trees to the side but no big deal. When not watching TV, I'll put them back in the correct areas.

    More better :) Been hanging around my young nieces too much. Talking like them. Moved my TV back some more, might be able to move it more, to fit the trees behind the fueling island, but doubt it. Can't wait to add some lights to it see what it looks like. Tonight yard work, boo, boo, boo! Of course I am sharing some structures and stuff that will go on the main layout at times. Might have to try a T-Track size base at some point. Just the size not the actual T-Trak kit you buy and build. Anyone know the dimensions in inches for T-Trak? Just the smallest square type piece.

    Those look like the River Point Station (now Atlas) Ford F250's. Very nice trucks!
