Looking great

Looking great! I especially like the retaining wall and the blending of the physical trees to the backdrop.

Remove Track Nails

Your outstanding rr and work always get my undivided attention. I to put track down with track nails, but now going on 4 plus years and many areas no scenery. When i do get around to finishing scenery I pull the train nails and fill holes with caulk and paint. Track nails show up in pictures like big fat thumbs.

Track nails

Thanks Art.

I looked back at some of the pictures and yes I do see them. Pictures do show a lot more sometimes then the naked eye.
