Google Earth+Ebay = new project?

Thanks, Micheal. I'm actually very happy with the way this is coming out, and am looking forward to getting the whole thing completed and running.

More than anything, though, I am looking at Mexican and Guatemalan 3' gauge prototypes, and seeing how I can adapt those into my semi-freelanced layout, considering my prototype locale is very close to the Mexico border and shared much more in common with Mexican narrow gauge than Colorado narrow gauges. Some of the flat roofed low class passenger cars look similar to a few I have seen for the Morenci Southern railway, which were built atop flat cars. And I've always been curious about that "Hinman" coach on the Cumbres and Toltec - knowing it came from Mexico and wondering if it would be fun to kitbash a steel coach like that from a standard gauge car.
