I finished the small triangle section next to the Woodwards house. I made a place for the kids. I hope old Mr. Woodward doesn't mind!!!

The Woodward house scene is all finished, here is a pic from across the tracks.



In this picture Old Pop Woodward is checking the oil while the Mrs. waits.



Here is one straight on from the back with the drywash on the right.



Now it is back across the tracks to start on the feed mill for the local Co-op.

For the next scene in Camp Douglas we will move back to the other side of town and across the tracks. I already have the base colors down and the track ballasted also the road and guardrail.

Thanks guy's!!

Jack, The Singleton's owned it. The post office moved down the street in another building. The store is still standing and is still a store but it looks nothing like it did here. The building has been stuccoed over and most of the windows were filled in.
