I'm glad you like our inaugural layout. It was designed to be something simple that we could get up in a hurry for display, but after we somehow never got in to our first show we had more time to add details and improvements. My dad designed and (...) (23 years ago, 22-Jan-02, to lugnet.trains.org.scltc)

(...) Wonderful layout! Most areas were densely populated with little things going on all over- it's great to see all those figs, and every one doing something. As for specifics, I particularly love the university, the brick trees, and that killer (...) (23 years ago, 18-Jan-02, to lugnet.trains.org.scltc)

Tim - Right now, I don't have any better pictures of the tower than what you can see on our website (www.scltc.org/pages.../air.htm).
