These photos were all taken outside on the patio because, it was at the time, the only place I had with enough room. The oval of track measures 41.5" (105.41cm) L x 17.5" (44.45cm) W. Soooo, if I were to make a scenicked board to display this on, I'd say a 2'x4' sheet of whatever (plywood, Masonite, chip board, etc.) would be just the right size. I had also made a YouTube video showing it in action. Enjoy! Opa Fritz

Jakks #71960(CAN) Power City Trains - Batman (2014) Pt 4 (The Buildings: Wayne Industries)
You can't have a Gotham City layout without Wayne Industries, after all, it's Bruce Wayne's main digs besides his mansion! The building included in this set is 5.625" (14.28cm) sq x 16.125" (40.95cm) H - quite large and quite cool! Enjoy! Opa Fritz

Jakks #71960(CAN) Power City Trains - Batman (2014) Pt 3 (The Buildings: Gotham City Hall, Police Station)
I really like the buildings included in this set. Kenner had made a couple of buildings for their micro-figures line (I have the Batcave and Gotham City sets) which might work okay with these Jakks buildings. But I don't know of any other playset that attempted to at least include Gotham City buildings in it. I mean, good grief, isn't that what Batman is all about - fighting crime in a big city? Where's the city? I wish there were more kits out there that you could use for the effort. BTW I did look into HO scale model railroad buildings (which would be the closest fit) but there's not much in this small scale, other than a few pricey 3D printed ones. I also looked at Clevermodels.com which sells downloadable files for building kits, but their products trend toward small town-ish type structures. PTF Designs does offer several 'flats' that are suitable as background buildings. I'm still looking.
Anywho, this is a nice combined building which has both Gotham City Hall and Police Station and measures 5.25" (13.33cm) sq x 8.125" (20.63cm) H. Enjoy! Opa Fritz
