Here is a little module 5 of us have been building. Pictured is Joe Lowery and my daughter Kelly. This started about 6 weeks ago just for fun. It has been fun and a great learning platform. Today we displayed it at the Irvington Railroad Festival. We still have to construct a mill and about a zillion other details. The 3 modules are 2 feet deep and 4 feet long. I scratchbuilt all the structures except the Campbell Freight House.

Beautiful work, Philip. I'm collecting ideas for an HOn3 shelf layout, about 16" deep, in my apartment. I got a lot of inspiration from your photo's. Please keep us updated as you work on it.
