I think it's located on a HO scale model railroad. It is just too perfect.

That looks like the Smith Mansion between Cody, WY and the East Gate of Yellowstone. It's rather famous in Wyoming. There have been lots of newspaper articles all over the world about it.

That only leaves 276,000 square miles to choose from.

That's it. Most folks around here pronounce it kitty-quay. It's the closest town to Caprock Canyons State Park and it's still off the beaten path. I'll see if I can find a pic of the other station across the street. Someone must prune that tree, I can't imagine it grew that way on its own. Ken, you must be familiar with the area.

It is in the Northeast.

Possibly not. It is in a National Park.

I'll wait for him to verify it, but I'm sure you are right. I'll swear he has one of the only 2 known pictures of the back of the house.

Post 917- You are correct. The view is as you come down the road to the parking area.
