    Someone needs to wash that tank car. The customers may be picky about such things. ;)

    I like the grimy-grungy look of the rolling stock. Makes that cool truck look even cooler!:cool:

    Here is an aerial shot just after laying all tracks:

    [​IMG]

    It's one module consisting of two segments.

    The industries will be:
    Top left: Stamping
    Top right: Bakery
    Bottom right: Scrap yard

    Between stamping and bakery is a non rail served industry.

    To the right there is a small extension board attached serving as a micro fiddle yard and to be able to use the rightmost turnout.

    That building looks incredibly realistic. Post that anywhere else than on a model RR forum, and one would think it's evidence in a vandalism case...:cool:

    Man, your layout looks AMAZING.

    It's just too bad it's in HO scale. ;)

    My first finished structure on my layout is a perfect background for portraits of my rolling stock:

    But that tank car just went thru a very severe rain storm. And the bakery needed the corn oil NOW. They told the RR send it dirty car or not. LOL
