Place it in an empty area. Make a parking lot ,Add a sliding board, swing set and baseball field. Call it Bridge View Park. Half a dozen civic ball fields by me have covered bridges.

Greetings and a belated Happy New Years. Just to keep January 2021 at the fore :D I am posting
some shots from the Bar Mills Springfield Station kit made over the Holidays. I always enjoy their
models. The laser cut wood gives such nice details. Had a blast painting and fussing with the slate roof.
That was an interesting part of the endeavor. Have no idea where to put this baby on the layout.

later............... Jim K

Very nice. I put off building that type too long now my eyes won't let me.

Nice build! Is the wagon off to the left from a kit? There’s one on eBay I may eventually get around to buying and building. Adds a nice detail to the over all scene.

Roger,
It’s a bit of a mess but this gives you an idea. It’s 15x48
With 2 mainlines a yard and a few ladder tracks. Occasionally I’ll post some scenes from within. Stay tuned.

Good storage thoughts there - too many overlook that detail.
