Tony's gift

I received Tony Brucia's gift this week. I wanted to wait for Christmas before opening it, but Tony wanted me to see it right away. Well, the layout its amazing. The layout is based on a tow in the middle of the oval. I like how Tony arrange the streets and decorated the city with flowers and statues. He aso added a MRC DCC sound to the layout, and I used one of Lajos experimental DCC batterie powered controller to run the suitcase layout. Now, the whole set up is portable. I took some pictures and I hope you like it as much as I do.

John, This cool. I like the T-Rex. Cheers, Jim CCRR:)

Hey John..
I like the pictures, and see your populating the scene with cars and details... very cool. I see the telephone wires are little loose where the Dino knocked them down in transport...

Merry Merry and a safe holiday season to you and your family!!!!

WOW! Great Christmas gift! You're a lucky Z'er, John. More great looking work by Tony.

Can we see an over-view shot? Is this layout in addition to your other box layout?

Alex, this a totally different layout. I cant find my ruler, but I say its 12x12. Its a little bit bigger then my shadow box layout in lenght and width, but its a lot taller. Here is a overview shot and a comparison shot.
