   Expressway from Bally (1971)

   By PinRich

   A VPX version of Expressway.  I was able to find a lot of information on this table and a number of pictures.  Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find head-on pictures that would be easy to use for artwork.  So, I needed to do some photo manipulation and some artwork on my own.  This table is definitely limited by my artistic ability!  
    
   I think this is a decent first attempt, but there are a lot of things that could be added or improved. 
   Please let me know if you find something that doesn't work or is not accurate to the real machine.
    
   ** You have my permission and encouragement to improve this table! **
    
   I started this table by stripping down the On Beam table, and I also used resources from Flip Flop, Fireball, Capersville and Sea Ray.  Probably a few other EM tables too.   
    
   I find this to be a pretty fun table - the main goal is to light the letters E-X-P-R-E-S-S-W-A-Y in sequence.
    
   I spent a little time learning how the new F12 options menu works.  So, there are several options available on page 3 of that menu.  Some are from the Bally manual and some are my own.  For example, I found pictures with red, yellow, and black flippers and I'm not sure what the original machine had - so I made it something you can pick from that menu.

   El Toro (Bally 1972)

   By PinRich

   It's Bally's El Toro.  I don't think anyone would call this their favorite table, but I'm starting to like it.
    
   There are not a lot of extra features like DOF or an options menu.  You have my permission and encouragement to improve this table.
    
   Please let me know if you find something that doesn't work or is not accurate to the real machine.  I already found a couple cosmetic things that I need to fix.
    
   I should have noted this before:  I started this table by stripping down the Hang Glider table because I really liked the feel of that machine, and I also used resources from Flip Flop, Fireball, Capersville and Sea Ray.  Probably a few other EM tables too.   A lot of people have done really nice recreations of Bally tables and that made this one easier.  A lot of ideas got reused on multiple tables, so it helped to look at others. 
    
   This was a lot of fun to work on, but I feel like I need a break from El Toro for a while!
    
   Some stuff that an ambitious person could add:
   -  The manual mentions several jumper options for awarding a bonus - see IPDB
   -  High Score sticky note
   -  LUT selector
   -  DOF
   -  More complex physics (like nFozzy)
   -  Better art.  Match the lettering font better while you are at it. 
        * Fun story - at one point I was having trouble finding resources and I thought about making my own theme as "El Taco."  I also considered "El Zoro" but then I found out there are two "R"s in Zorro (and it might be copyrighted).
   -  Accurate apron score cards
   -  VR stuff
   -  Correct anything else that doesn't match real table.  Either I didn't know and guessed or I made a mistake.  For example - I wasn't sure where the bulbs were on the real backglass, so I just guessed.
