Fantastic - Great shots!
I'm trying to cast the entire Erie-Lackawanna train station in with a model
of the tower for more effect.  The tower's pretty boring itself, but the
story behind it is cool.  I guess I can't just model that without the
station nearby since the tower was placed there because of the freight
operations in Binghamton at that station at that time.  The tower's still
used for radio signals, making it one of the oldest operating radio towers
in existance.  The key here is that it was _designed_ as a radio tower, not
just a tower with radio transmission added later on.

The Channgo Street Bridge, aka The Viaduct, was always a favorite item to
model when I was a kid with my N gauge stuff.

OK - rant mode off.  Thanks, Nicole.
