Got today a bag of 1:87 scale bricks. I added some to an pile of debris and fixed them like ballast (white glue etc.)

I tried to do some residuals of walls to be placed in the debris and ruins. My hands and eyes are not made for that kind of work.....
The pencil is a reference of size

John, thanks for your remarks. It is very understandable that you wonder why I model such a nasty run down area and why I do a new scenery every some month. I assure you there is absolute nothing I want to accomplish. It is just my hobby and I take the liberty to change my mind and build whatever comes into my mind. That is a degree of freedom very rare in real life.
Peter Feigenbaum was mere chance. I was just starting to rebuild small town US into some more urban when I stumbled over his web page again and got attracted by the overall impression of his installments (I know he is an artist and not a model railroader). I thought why not, let's try it. That is the freedom I wrote about in the above section.
Anyhow, it is very much freelance. I need simple some scenery for the south west corner of my layout. Only one track runs through that area. No rail served industry would fit on that curved track. A perfect place to do something that needs no railroad but makes scenery only. Conrail SW9, GP15-1 and GP38-2 serve the layout currently. I think that fits into any city in the north east in the 1980 time frame.
Last but not least, John thanks a lot for all the support and help you gave me in this forum.
