Thank you, Jay, Jeff!
Jay, I was once again looking over the area to see if there is a better position for the firehouse. I tried it more in the center of town before, but it doesn't look appropriate there. The edge of town seems better. I had it angled facing the curve more, but it crossed over the joint between the lift up and the solid table. I had planned to attach the buildings to the lift up, but still make them easily removable. I think I will try putting the firehouse at the angle again and just remove it on the rare occasions that I need to open the lift up. Brick or concrete may be the answer for around it.
Jeff, I think you are right about brick, possibly right to the grade crossing. From there I could make the road either asphalt or concrete. Thinking back to childhood in the '60s, a lot of roads around here were improved and straightened using concrete. Now they have asphalt over them, but the cracks at the underlying expansion joints give away what was underneath. Although, the twisty road in front of daughter Heidi's house leads out of town and is brick for a ways. I hope the guy that makes the rollers gets back to you soon.
