    E L Moore jigger hut. First scratch build in a long time, was great fun. Velocipede still needs painting, and need a bit of glazing in the windows.

    Here is another structure I built to go with the sawmill I posted on the page 2. This is a trailer loader for log trucks. This is built entirely from scratch. I have thought about making this in a resin kit form, but am not entirely sure about that.

    Here’s the Illinois Central depot in my parents’ hometown, Tonica, IL. The prototype is long gone, unfortunately.

    Roundhouse is progressing. Sent casting masters for the celestory window casments and rear walls to Superturbine for him to do his magic. Should move along quickly after that.

    Update. Getting ready to paint and install shutters. Waiting on laser-cut shingles so I can add the roof and weather a bit.

    Roof installed with RSLaser shingles. First time using these and I'm very impressed. A bit time consuming to install but well worth it.
