The Mogollon Railroad
Sitting around thinking one day - I realized that my town has roads, but no roads actually exit the layout's edge Eek. Somehow, this bothers me, because prior to the arrival of the railroad in town, the first settlers and prospectors had to come by horse and wagon, and that means a road. And such a small layout - it just seems like an obvious flaw - like the parking lot without an exit or cars driving towards the end of a dead-end street we often see on layouts. And that really bothers me! So, I extended one road to the layout's edge, created this little concrete retaining wall to "stabilize" the slope, and now the LPBs have a way to travel to the unmodeled sections of town and adjacent towns without having to hop on the train Smile I still need a guardrail of some sort. You can also see the stairwell I added for the LPBs to get from their houses to the lower parts of town without having to take the "long route".
