  Motel MOC
 
This should be my last significant MOC for NALUG's 2009 GETS show. I might fiddle with some vehicles if I have time, and there is one small item I might go with. This is a motel, an *ugly* motel.

(...) Oooohh! That is so beautiful. From some of the thumbnails, I'd swear I was looking at pictures from "Model Railroader"! There is so much to like. -Chris Gray (NALUG) (15 years ago, 10-Aug-09, to lugnet.town)
