I like the train in this picture. I wish there were more models like it in 3 rail ogauge. Perfect size for a small layout.

The first car behind the tinder appears to be a combo passenger car ?

Yes. Nice combine car.

The statue in front of the court house appears to be a civil war monument.?

Street view on google maps it is still there. Picture is not sharp enough to read what it says.

Probably is a civil war monument.

There were companies that cataloged and manufactured statuary for Civil War monuments. A town that wanted to commemorate the local boys could order a statue from the book, build a plinth, and Bob's-your-uncle, you've got a nice set-up for the town square or the front of the courthouse. States or regimental organizations often did the same for their battlefield monuments. This continued until after WWI, updated with appropriate product line.

Must have been a company that did WW I "Doughboys" also. Many of the same design around the country. I think different sizes were available.

In the raging metropolis of Hop Bottom!



House to the left with the balcony is still there.....

I've driven thru Hop Bottom numerous times, along Rt.11 betwix Scranton , PA and Cortland, NY. It's a delightful li'l berg to pass thru. And yes, I'm pretty sure I recall that house you mentioned being there, too, and maybe some form of the houses near it on that side of the street. There is a pretty, neat little wooden church along the way, too, which often has a perky little message on its out-front announcement board, enjoyable to read quickly while driving-by.

There is a nice little low-lying pond within the community, too, dark green and always looking clean.

Figured you might know of it being just along Rt. 11 up your direction, Reminds me of a lot of places looking at it using Google maps....
