Suggestions wanted for bare spot on my tinplate layout.

Quarry with a swimming pond/lake.

Good spot for a switch tower and freight sheds

How about a baseball diamond/field.

A farm or a zoo/wildlife area.

How about a few homes, trees, grass, etc?

A farm would work if you can find one.

As for a little village most of these cookie tin houses were $12 or less.  Big Ben cost me about $37 but took me a year to find

With plastic rustic fence pieces, create a "corral" to contain juvenile dinosaurs. It would be a hit with youngsters.  A corner of my layout is populated with dinos from the toy collection of my great-grandson, and the Lionel DINOSAUR TRAIN SET is parked nearby. Photo attached.

With the Mountain in the back ground how about an old western town or buildings from the era of your trains?

How about a Marx tinplate castle?  Make it a tourist attraction with re enactments from the times of Kings and Knights.

I bought my Big Ben on Amazon. It came with the cookies!
