Modeling south of the boarder in HO

Hey guys,

I've been working on an enlarged Inglenook layout for an upcoming show and decided to model a short section of the Ferrocarriles Undos Del Sureste railway down in Veracruz Mexico.   I've modeled a lot of Mexican subjects in N scale and thought I would go up a scale for this project.  The layout is centered around the station at Los Robles, one that was pretty well documented and photographed on Google Earth street views.  I was able "walk" the entire site and using screen captures able to begin replicating the area for an authentic feel.

As awesome as this sounds, it's not the FEC Key West Extension in N!  We want updates!   :D

Seriously, I can't keep up.

I'll get that re-constituted in a few weeks. I shut down the blog to re work it and got distracted further south :)
