    Every so often I will look at a layout and something will strike me and from it comes a new idea.

    So said and done.

    Thanks for sharing this with us.

    Hi Mike. Like the work you are doing! I'm gonna have to get some of those Modelflex Studio flats! Is that how it's spelt? Haven't heard of them before. Thanks for the update.
    Cheers, Bob.

    Hmph. Those look like some nice kits, Mike. Tell me how they stack up as far as experience needed to build them. I'm a rookie! Only built two laser kits but am having fun.

    Thanks for the reply Mike. I also asked the same question on NSO! They look good. No wonder I couldn't find them as Modelflex Haha. I'm deaf in one ear and can't hear out of the other.
    Cheers, Bob.

    Here is an extension I did yesterday to my Turntable area. I moved the fascia out about 5" and filled it in and place some new trackage in this area.

    Very nice, Mike!

    You have a very convincing sizing and spacing of the buildings, streets and parking along the McDonald's street.
