F&SM pics

Postby jimmyb » Thu Feb 26, 2009 7:44 am

Attached are some pics I took of the unfinished Franklin area during a visit in September of 1997. Thought you would be interested in seeing them to remember what the layout looked like before it was finished, at least it that area. Of course, it continues to evolve as Mr. Sellios makes changes.

Thanks for posting the pics Jim. It's interesting to see the FSM in a partially completed state.

Thanks for the photos Jim.

My first visit to the F&SM was the spring of 1996. I need to find the photos I made during my visit.

I recall there was another thread here at the forum with F&SM photos. I wonder what happened to it. There are many of us that love to see any photos of the F&SM.

Great photos!

Does anyone else have any they took prior to George stopping all photos being taken of the F&SM?

I think the other thread closed due to the photos being posted were posted by a person who didn't take the photos! I think, but I may be wrong.

Pics like that give hope to us with unfinished layouts, sometimes we forget that it dose take time.
