yea, i put brown ballast around some of the tress and it looks a lot better.  i might even make that ballast solid because my trees keep falling over.

those passengers are kline.  i couldnt help the price for heavyweight 4pk with interior details.  paid 199.  now here is a HUGE HUGE HUGE beginners mistake.  in my simple mind i wanted 8 cars so i bought two of em.  dont laugh but i know you are.  well i realized once i got them that i really dont want two sets of the same thing.  i cant even use the observation car because of no coupler.  so i guess i have to sell it.   i said stop laughing

yea thats a cop from the movies cars.  i just spray painted the windshield to get rid of the eyes.  going to do more ground cover to break up that perfect grass mat i put on.  wont do that again.  more trees and more detail for sure.  i think my best thing was the pond.  i mean even i was suprised the way that came out.   going to get the gone fishing people to add to it.

thanks.

yea i really dont want to pay msrp for anything.  i am brand new to this hobby but i have been in the card hobby for years.  One thing i learned is never ever pay msrp.   Your bankroll for your hobby wont go that far if you do.

but dang thats a quality bachmann demonstrator.
