Roanoke Shops sign

[NW Modeling List]

I will get in touch with my contact at Miller Engineering.  See about one that is simpler in lighting based on steam-era sign.  

I had also inquired about having a non-lighted version made by a custom modeler in Md.  I’ll also follow up with them so we have options.
