there is five total and the only pic i ever got of all five together was the last photo where they're all cuddled together under the roof of the fuel/oil dealer office. btw the roof they're under is only 5" x 93/4" x 53/4" high!

The light at the end of the tunnel might be an oncoming train.

If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electical problem.

you only need two tools in life, duct tape and WD40. If it dosen't move and it should, use WD40. if it moves and it shouldn't, use duct tape.

someone has to set a bad exsample. :)

there's a fine line between 'fearless' & 'stupidity'.

awwww, those bunnies are adorable. I like how your little model city has it's own population haha. Also, the pictures of the squirrels eating nuts out of the trains are hilarious. I'd love to see them chase after them, you should take a video.

i believe the squirrels are camera shy i was literaly hiding the camera just to get the shots i did. when i hold the camera up to try and take video they run up the tree and start shaking there tail at me.i acually gave one a short train ride once, course i didn't have the camera then. :( all the bunnies have grown up now each one is almost as big as the building they were under now.

here are some pics ofthe mountain project in it's ealy stages the old tunnel is still there after being recently abandoned. the whole one side of the layout was moved a foot towards the driveway to make room for the new mountain.

Posted Image
veiw of abandoned tunnel and the "shofly" (temporary track) that was built around the old mountain so that i could still run trains while i finished demolishing

Posted Image
anther veiw of the old tunnel and shofly, also not ethe bare earth that indicates the exstended border.

Posted Image
veiw of the railyard. green lines indicate exstended yard tracks, red line indicates the original alignment of the main line, black line indicates the start of the new tunnel.

Posted Image

i've often wondered myself how i got that lucky, i have more problems with people destroying the christmas lights them i do with the layout. although i did have one problem with someone stealing the top of the lighthouse, but by the time i was able to confirm that it had been stolen i had already assumed it had been blown away by the wind (which was a constate problem) and built a new one.

My time is never free. I pay for every damn second of it in one way or another!
I'm gonna get what's comin' to me one day...
These days my life is empty,
Hard times for the son-of-a-bitch!
