Progress On The Coffee Table

After some time of leaving the layout alone I started working on the coffee table again. The trees on the left side of the table still need to be worked on I changed the name of the station to "Salt Creek" Station named after the original name of the village of Shepherd Michigan. The locomotive is a GP35 painted up with markings that represent the Ann Arbor Railroad under DTI control, followed by 4 boxcars with Ann Arbor Railroad markings as existed under Wabash control. Two tank cars followed by two covered hoppers a coal car and a gondola and finally a caboose brings up the rear. The layout also includes a farmhouse and a barn, a residential area, a school house, a feed store, a hotel, and a church. A lake separates the two half's of the layout. a mountain with a train tunnel gives the impression that the train is traveling further than it actually is. Working on this layout is what inspired me to want to create a larger N scale layout. The Canadian National layout that I have been talking about.
