Good work, Croz, looking forward to seeing this develop. I even think I've figured out the stadiums you are using, though I'm still guessing on Elkton and Harbor (I could guess either of 2 candidates).


LOL. It took Brockway's owner some time to even convince people he was serious about putting a train engine on top of the wall. Those that knew him best thought it was a little over the top, even for him.

Here are a few more details on a couple of stadiums in the league. Elkton's park is a converted track and field stadium, although the plan all along was to turn it into a baseball stadium. Elkton hoped this would one day bring a team to town. In fact the stadium was used for a big track and field event only once before it was reconfigured. The league is also going to try and limit the number of day games in Elkton during the dog days of summer as Elkton has a reputation for being very hot and humid.

Besides being a beautiful stadium, the ballpark in Harbor offers wonderful views of the water that gives the town its name. The water beyond the brick right field wall is actually a cove off of the Harbor. A cove that has been largely ignored by the Harbor locals until the building of the ballpark. A cove that is presently unnamed.
