What will he think of next ?(I know..hehe)
Late summer, last year Dan and I were talking about my RDC line (which is also Eaglewings)and he mentioned that he was thinking of make buildings in G scale. I said, "You're kidding right?" Dan said, No.. I think I can do it ..We're kicking around ideas now..
Hmmmm! OK, when you get it going I'd be happy to display them on my layout. What a better place to show them off but on the "Official" EagleWings East Coast All Weather Outdoor Layout EH?
Dan said.. "Yea, that'll be cool"
We spoke mid-March 2007 about them and, planned on showing them off fully painted and gussied up at my June 2007 Open House..
They arrived within a week of my Open House and, were painted and ready to be shown.
The photo on the left was taken before I opened up for the day. The buildings are positioned in the main pathway around the layout. They did cause a little "bottleneck" but they also generated a lot of questions which, I was glad to answer.
The buildings were named based on my sense of humor. (except the Travel Agent)
SB'S Lounge = Sponge Bob's
EMI = Beatles Recording studio on Abbey Road
(The boys needed a place to walk to)
MOJO Deli + a place where
Mum, Mum MoJo wants to work.
HOAGBUILT HOTEL = The name says it all. |
