[align=center]I was trying to do a section of the New York High lines from sixth to fourteenth ave , this place is so windy thatI need high scenery to break it up,

the line was freight only but got some interesting features I walked a bit of it sa few years ago, I used to overlook it from where I worked and was always intrigued by it, total white elephant asa railway

I will be building some big structures soon from for sale sign boards, this railway ran thro the middle of buildings brill

What a great idea Mr Spock i'm a great fan of the New York sky line have several prints in the lounge

I remember several years ago seeing a wooden Empire State Building CD holder about 5ft tall would look great on your line

Greta picture Mr Spock. Can I assume that the point work is Peco 1 Guage ?

[align=center]Hi Rod thanks

most of the trackwork is Peco but the double slip is handmade, and so are most the pointwork,
I use peco code 200 rail and copperclad,

I want to use building out lines and sillouettes as a wind break as the Atlantic air hits here non stop, I go into the feild every week to retreive box cars and anything not nailed down,

never thought about that CD tower, a model Empire would be 145ft high so may interfere with the local aircraft ,
