I would put the lady on the throne in the back of my Lionel Strasburg Observation car… Lol, now that would be funny!

Result of my handiwork this weekend. Can you spot the woman, umm, smoking? I like a contest/challenge! Top picture, she's semi-slouched in the back seat of the red convertible. I notice you did not paint the protrusion from her hand in cigarette-accurate tones!

Bad driving is anywhere morons don't use turn signals early enough; staying in the left lane seemingly forever; on the phone flapping their piehole; basically doing anything but attentative driving. No wonder car insurance is expensive. From an old driving instructor....oh yeah....those who drive around crossing gates!!!!!

I need that figure, lol. Back in the eighties there was a certain Canadian Prime Minister who made a similar gesture through a train car window in Salmon Arm, British Columbia. The gesture became known as the ‘Salmon Arm Salute’ …. Maybe I can reproduce the scene?

Dave I don’t want to encourage this kind of behavior but I have tried looking for where I got the original and more finely detailed figure of this passenger. It may have been Woodland Scenics rather than Preiser. In any case, she is included in innumerable seated passenger sets available on eBay although I fear that these are all knock-offs of the original and lack facial features if that is important to you. Here’s an example of a set easily found on the auction site:

Traffic circles takes some getting used to but once you do they work pretty well. When I was there if you didn't keep moving at entrance to the circle they ran you over, didn't matter if there wasn't an opening
