Just a note to show off some MOCs (row houses, a church, train station, and
a couple "main street" style stores):

http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=5009

These were included as part of the Wamalug display at a recent train show.
Pics were taken by Dan Boger (thanks Dan!).

Most of the buildings were inspired by train magazine photos and ads.
Sadly, most of my buildings are "abandoned" -- exteriors only (four sides);
no interior detail.   A couple of the houses actually do have interiors to
them (done by my wife)... but I'm working on the rest.

(...) like the church windows and doorway, the train station colors and roof support, and the small-town-ness of the white shop. Well-balanced use of space, too. Many displays have too many roads. Amy (23 years ago, 18-Jun-01, to lugnet.town)

To echo others comments, these are really great, Greg. There is something distinctly different about the oveall appearance of the layout protrayed in these photos ---- as others have mentioned, I think it has to do with your composition as a whole. (...) (23 years ago, 19-Jun-01, to lugnet.town)

Hi, Greg. Really sweet work here. Love the stained glass on the chapel. Nice porch work on the row houses, and the white shop building is wonderful. Rock on, -The Rev. Brendan Powell Smith (23 years ago, 20-Jun-01, to lugnet.town)
