Organized all my stored rolling stock, and dug out the pieces of this long stalled layout. It's just a roundy, but it will include two specific station scenes in Delaware

Well... a few weeks ago my big all Camaro event was a huge success, 400 cars and $5000 for charity (Lupus Foundation). So that kept me from modeling for some time.
HOWEVER... Today, I finished the MoW vans! See the posting in the MoW vehicle item, I believe in the real Reading section.
Thanks,
Barry

Glad to see this topic was resurrected. It was my favorite on the old site, and I almost brought it up myself but was waiting to see if Mr. Bill, the originater, would post it again. Should he get some kind of award? I believe it was the most active topic on the old site...Modeling time has been limited. I have been working on a C&BT RDG XMWa adding a thinner roofwalk, A-Line stirrups, and more realistic brake rigging. I've also been at the paint booth weathering some models that were assembled and detailed over the past months. I'm hoping to get to the photo booth soon.--Dave

I moved Manure Siding to Exeter Twp. Film at eleven (or not.- maybe eventually a photo - since it has been in storage for like ten years)

Does "manure siding" refer to your Temple Hill layout? Did you ever find any old pics of the co-op?

Mr. Bill - you are correct it is on the Temple Hill and in line with the Co-op.

I have lots of photos of the Co-op Building in the 90's and current as it has always been a target project but nothing from earlier days. The sad part is I was in that building at least once a month during the early sixties, as that is where we picked up feed for my brothers' racing pigeons and our various family rabbits.
