Monopoly Plus

I was playing Monopoly Plus on Xbox a few weeks ago and something struck me as I watched the backgrounds of the 3D enhanced board you can play. There is a really cool model city with moving trains, cars, a waterfront on one side with boats, an amusement park and skyscrapers in the middle. I thought, this would be a great model railroad setup to make in real life. Take a look at about the 1 minute mark. . 

I gotta thing for model railroads. I'd build one tomorrow if I had the resources. I think I'd build it like it's shown in Monopoly Plus. A square set with trains outside and inside, water on one side with boats and a whole bunch of buildings, a blimp and roads on the inside. Maybe I'd even include the monopoly board so you could also play the game as well as watch the trains and other moving things. 

I have a hankering to design this in some program that I wish I could use on my Xbox. I don't think there's an Illustrator app for it but I might look for one. I could also design it in Minecraft which would probably be the way to go. 

Ah, my weird hobby dreams.

A few years ago I took my wife to Atlantic City for her birthday. Unfortunately it rained that day, so she didn't want to do the boardwalk, but we did go see Marven Gardens.

What's your favorite Monopoly piece?  Mine's the iron.  I don't know why, though.  I just like it.  It's such an old timey iron that I don't even think they have it as a piece anymore in the game.

I was big on the ship this time. I remember my friends and I fighting for the car back in the day though.
