Downtown where? I guess it could be Vicksburg or Schoolcraft MI, Granger or maybe even Mishawaka, IN. This downtown is a mish-mosh of features found in all those towns. For now, this town is called Laurel Ridge, Indiana. A small town with big railroading action. The industrial area features kits by Walthers, Korber, IHC, Buildings Unlimited, DPM, Russ Briggs and Lionel.
Like the real GTW, many of these industries are auto parts suppliers, but there's also traffic generated by the CoOp elevator, and Laurel Station, with daily Amtrak trains to & from Chicago & Detroit, as well as Amtrak's "International" to Toronto.
