First show 1
The McKeesport modules at the first show in 2003. No structures are constructed yet, but the basic roads are installed. The roads are constructed of WS foam with a thin layer of spackle that has been painted concrete and weathered
Second show
The ice house has been completed and is built from the JL Innovative 'Brookside Ice House'. It took nearly 6 months to construct, but the effort is well worth it. The shell of the shipping building is beginning to take shape.
Second show 2
