    That's a good looking bridge. Evening settles in on an E8 in the yard.

    I had a chance to do a few small projects over the weekend on Specialty Minerals. I am beginning to build conveyors, crushed limestome loading bins, and a truck scale. Covers on the conveyor are just placed and not glued. I will paint, weather and place limestone on the belts before attaching the curved covers.

    Truck scale. Needs paint and weathering.

    Weathered the bridge shoes on the three span crossing of the Housatonic River, in New Milford.

    That was it for this weekend.

    That's quite a substantial facility. What is the footprint?

    The main plant shown in those photos is about 2 x 6 feet long, but there will also be a bagging plant, which will being it out to about 8.5' total length.

    One of the other other large industries on this N scale layout is Kimberly Clark. The main plant is 24" by 42" in size.

    Wow. Impressive size! You must have a good amount of available layout space. :)
