Unusual Scenery Ideas
John sent in this unusual idea to share:
“The souvenir teaspoons that people collect sometimes have an outside toilet on them. Here in Australia the outside loos were called a thunderbox, longdrop, or dunny. After painting and weathering I cut them off and use them as extra scenery in back yards or around older buildings. I add a well worn track to them if modeling in that era or have them with extra junk surrounding them. And they look great with a figure in them.

what a cool idea. thanks
Seems there are lots of knicknacks we collect over time we can use. HO is more commom (i.e.many Matchbox vehicles) than N-scale, but that’s not surprising.
