Probably THE only shot we can find of the place you started your day at Dover…The Pit Gate .Had to pay up -sign the Pepsi pit pass and they’de tear off the the stub.If anyone has any more of this familiar little shack…send it in.Got this ‘new’ Idea of building a scale model of the the track layout.Need research photos to build the buildings.Have plenty of ariel shots to place everything in scale.Maybe Pat Hennebury could help with this ,with his model train structures.Don’t know where it would end up or how big …probably about N-or HO scale.
