Frank,

All I can say is your photographs look like I can just walk down the hill and right in your town!

I just received this MTH building on fire before I had to leave because of Irma. Luckily everything was ok when I got back!

I didn't know you lived in Florida!  I'm glad you and everything is okay!  This is the first I knew this building came with another firefighter on the ground.  Looks good!

Many thanks Mark! We were super lucky this time around, just a few tree branches in the back yard went down, nothing more. Electric power was on the whole time according to my neighbor, who stayed behind.

Yes, the second firefighter came with this setup, in case you want to shoot water from a greater distance (recommended for the brave only).

NJ Hirailers Empire State Building 

I'm trying to place the Empire State Building location on the layout to figure out what was there last Trainstock.

I think the Schraft's warehouse was there and in front of it the elevated line came off from the abutment and went into the Genco building. These are all on the other side now and the elevated track is gone.
