Module Description:
Along country roads, all through the growing and harvest seasons, you can find stands like this, where farmers sell their fresh produce. The specific crops sold at each stand will vary with the season and location, but the idea is the same.
The small railroad siding at the front of the module allows a single freight car to be delivered here, possibly with a load of tractors or combine harvesters for a nearby farm or farming equipment dealer.
The road crosses the railroad here, and gives us an opportunity to remind everyone to
STOP —
LOOK —
LISTEN —
and proceed only when it is safe.
