Michael - outstanding work - like to know where you got the truck model in the left hand side of the store - I need a good source for these type of models for my layout - thanks in advance. look forward to more posts from you.

I posted those photos a long time ago. Some came directly from Michael; others came secondhand. I haven't heard a peep from Omartian for years but guys I'm regularly in touch with tell me his layout has progressed substantially. Apparently one room is complete and he has expanded into another room. I sent him a note yesterday or the day before and have received no reply. I guess he's one of those people who only contacts you if he wants something .... -- Russ

Beautiful! How big is this layout?

I don't the exact dimensions. Michael says the stuff in the photos is in one room in a basement and, as I recall, the layout is U-shaped. He then drilled a tunnel through the wall to extend the layout into an adjacent storage room. None of the photos shows the work in the second room. -- Russ
