What you really need on that siding is a Penn Central boxcar that's rusted away, with paperwork dating to 1970...  Another forgotten waybill from the Red Team/Green Team wars...  There was a PC era boxcar sitting on the old BC&A track in Salisbury... I swear that's what happened there.  Someone painted it red and was using it for a storage shed, then magically, it disappeared.

I'm toying with the idea of doing a street running scene for the One Track rig... Boston Street in E. Baltimore circa 1986 or so.

That looks fine on a diorama .. but from operational standpoint .. shiny rail tops with weeds growing all over ... and how would you clean the track without screwing up the scenery ..

Use Kato Uni-Track, duh!  ;D

One thing we could use in N scale are shopping carts, especially if they were reasonably priced. Any chances of seeing those, Craig?

Sean, these have been out for ages - http://goldmm.com/nscale/gmnscart.htm Let Craig concentrate on new porta-pot color schemes.

BTW, Craig, as much as I like BLMA products, there's a Polish etching company - http://www.haw.pl/ - that puts your outhouse to shame. It includes the necessary interior details (except for a roll of TP)
Failing to prepare is preparing to fail.
