Hi Pounder, thanks for your great work.
I've seen that your creations are very beautiful and I would like to suggest you something.
Mines makes production, in our days production is factories but not only them, there is a city around the factory. I think that mines should be a continuation of the city, it would create a metropolitan region on the city, being able to connect two cities with mines (smallest cities with factories). Like happens with Boston and Washington ( Bos-Wash) or Essen and Dortmund, for example, the Bos-Wash axis is connected by smallest cities. I'm not a creator, so I don't know if my idea is really possible, but I think it is.
Thanks, by the way.
