Three Rivers Festival 2010
Larry's bascule bridge, Three Rivers, 2010
Bascule bridge built by Larry Smith's father
Bascule bridge was the hit of the show;
many watched as it opened and closed.

Proceeding to the back, we have the quarry,
the airport and GE Building #4.
The show was set up at the Historical Museum in Fort Wayne. We set up in the former mayor's office, now the orientation room for the museum. (The museum was the Fort Wayne City Hall for many years.)

In addition to Ron's railroad yard, we had four straight modules and four corners.
