You'll need a lot of cars to make it really realistic!

Tried the Pan Am blue on the terminal roof, color is correct but in reality it is so washed out by sun and weather it appears white in all the photos, a quick repaint will put me back a day

Found some some very nice cardboard in craft shop, brick was reduced to approx 1/400 and printed on heavy gauge paper and the top portion was some aluminum coated paper I found. All was glued over cardboard and trimmed . Worked out really well. Looking to complete this thing during the week and hope to photograph next weekend if all goes well.

Kool. And one more question. Is the terminal made of plastic or balsa?
