so poking around on Google Street view, I finally captured an image of the company sign for the warehouse district that I'm doing in the back right of the layout:

Any good ideas on how to capture it so I can take the yellow light pole guy wire out?

Aside from misadventures in signage, I started on an unloaded for the Sir Lee Salt warehouse. This is a Rix elevator kit glues to some sheet styrene. The styrene will represent the coffers vault under the track so there paint and grating in my future.

The local railroad pause for the volunteer firefighters parading up US 61 north in celebration of our nation’s birthday.

Happy 4th of July!

Sweet!  Good to see some trains out.   Can’t wait for when they can stretch their legs in some roundy-round action.

And now, X number of months later, I give you the silos:



Just some @wm3798 sourced candelabra tubes, Evergreen Styrene, Tichy handrails, S&S brass mesh and scrap bin parts.

I like it ..   various pipes in the plumbing department at Lowes or HD are great starting points for these kinds of things .. and even in N scale, the ladders and associated hardware can be printed in resin

Thanks @John  - mine is all scrap box parts which isn’t as cool as 3D printing but the price was right.
