YOU have too many ride models? LOL LOL OMG....[:0][:D][:o)]

Try two model shows....120 rides/fun houses....probably 40+ game trailers....still need to build more food trailers....office trailers....shop trailers....tractors....man I could go on....heck even a donniker trailer....LOL LOL

I think I managed to use every ride model I have built on a layout this year at least once, many of them way more than that. LOL That was a feat I never thought would happen. LOL

You got to many huh? I only counted 35 or 38 on your lists and my show has 45 plus 8 that I paid for 2 months ago and I think I have to many. I know you are talking about what you have room for I was just adding a comment.

I was over perusing the Ridemodelers Yahoo! Group site, some fantastic model midways in the photos section, if anyone cares to venture over there. Some recently added photos from different folks.

Anyways, forgot I had uploaded a file with some photos of Justin's JLJ Midways. So take a look, he has a great looking model show.

Also (shameless plug, I know, LOL), I have two files there with photos of my model shows, Wonderland Shows, and Frangipani Amusements, if anyone who has not seen photos is interested.

Yes you do. Comes from the name of a tree, produces flowers that look like orchids, heard it mentioned in a song, thought it sounded kinda neat, so I looked it up, and decided to use it for a VERY unique, LOL, show name.

LOL Thanks guys. It IS a unique name, to say the least.

This is the show logo I use. And the other two shows as well (Wonderland (mine) and JLJ (Justin's).

Yeah well, you know what they say....opinions are like a**holes, everyones got one....[:o)]

Stronly considering downsizing a bit, or at least replacing some models with different ones. We'll see.
