It seems the town of Mauston is doing some sewer work in town and has leased a small section of land for storage.

Awhile back a guy in town gave me a box of ho junk, all kinds of parts in a box. There was a bunch of old wall sections in it so I figured why not. The town of Mauston never really had a music store in it but I thought it should, So I built this.

It's hard to see from the photo but the building is triangle shaped.

Next to the music store I added this small icing facility using a JL Innovation Brookside ice platform kit.

What is a town without houses? I scratch built two Sears kit houses using plans from the original Sears catalog.

Now it's back across the tracks and up front. Getting the space ready for the station I am building at present and a future house.

A little progress being made, I filled in the small triangle and added a guard rail.
