Hi all, (2 URLs) BS> (URL) Flickr> Hi all, My version of the classic car. Five-wide is a bit big for it in my usual scale but I think it was worth it. Tim (18 years ago, 9-Jan-07, to lugnet.town, lugnet.announce.moc, FTX) !!

As usual, great work from mr. Lopes. For the rest of us NYC nerds, this firehouse is actually on 18th street, 1 block north and a hundred odd feet west of union square. A good photo of the actual firehouse is here: (URL) funny thing is that I've (...) (18 years ago, 8-Jan-07, to lugnet.town)

I like the second scene a lot! The rich but simple detailing you put into each building is excellent. I like your use of the new wheel frames, even if it does raise bley issues. Thanks for sharing and God Bless, Nathan (URL) (18 years ago, 5-Jan-07, to lugnet.town, FTX)
