Hello,
I have posted pictures of my "structure in progress" elevated subway to
brickshelf. Please take a look if you get a moment & LMKWYT. Any ideas on
how I could improve/add to it are welcome also.

Very nice. From the green and white train in this picture:

Should I take that you are modeling Boston's El? Chicago's certainly is • more
well known, but you have done an excellent job of capturing the feel of El • from
my remembrances of the El in Boston. This picture:

Sure brings back memories of riding the El into North Station in Boston.

Of course a stickler would quibble with the term "Elevated Subway" (though • it's
hard to say otherwise in Boston where the same train could run on both El • and
Subway trackage.

(...) Hi Bryan, Here they are. Aside from the mid-section I think it *looks* good, but there are many, many flaws as I'm sure you'll be able to see. www.brickshelf.com/c...cgi?f=4476 Enjoy & thanks for the feedback on my town! Jonathan (24 years ago, 10-May-01, to lugnet.town, lugnet.trains)
