    Interactive GE style map for Bingo

    Bingo:  Neobie's great find!!  :tup: Map reference    OFFICIAL TOWN SITE

   

   

And best of all!!

using Neobie's coordinates:

--- Quote ---Managed to match up the train 'station' (1°49'41"W 12°17'52"N) and the town of Bingo (1°49'55"W 12°18'00"N) on Google Earth with this map, but I'm still a little helpless with the rest of the locations. Looks like the building at 1°49'59"W 12°18'11"N is the only one long enough to be the school (the trees kind of match up), so I'm thinking the milking was on the south side of the track and the Pit Stop on the north side?
--- End quote ---

Chateau was able to give us this exact GE picture match:  :yess:



YOU GUYS ROCK! :kissy:
