This is a 3'x5' industrial complex. It uses kits from Altoona model works office with round dome, DPM wall sections for the loading dock and Korber Models concrete and brick for the 3 story building. The walk over is scratch built and the gate house is a cut down korber tower. The fencing is woodland scenic. It will also be getting more modern trucks and autos. It uses 2 rail Atlas O track but would work with 3 rail track.

Stu,
Nice job on the industrial complex. I like the building crossover. It is a nice touch.
Stu that's a great industrial complex. The office and walk over are fabulous. Is the office building one kit or two kits combined into one building?

Joe, I used to use the K line but when they stopped I now scratch build them. Walthers makes a nice HO one that some people use. I think scenic express sells them or you can find them on line. Here is a link to one but you can find a lot more. https://www.ebay.com/itm/WALTH...er-kit-/193772490240. I also use these smaller ones by scenic express. https://www.sceneryexpress.com...productinfo/WP11051/
Stu, Amazing industrial complex. Like all your details. Thanks for the links to resources. How big of a space does this take up?

this is 3'x5'
Stu, thanks for the size information. You sure have a lot in that 3x5 space and it does not look crowded. Nice planning and placement too.
Tom
As others have noted, great job, nice mix of buildings and structures and well laid out plan that's not too busy and crowded, but very realistic.
Beautiful work. Those tractor trailer drivers are going to be angry at you, though.

Arthur, please let me know why they would be angry. i am serious with tung in cheek. if you are referring to the two trailers that are facing the wrong way they are no longer road worthy and have been turned into storage only with the backs facing out.
WOW Stu, looks great! You know I start thinking I am not doing to bad and then I see Amazing work like this and think well you go a long way to go! LOL
Sounds reasonable.
More added details to the storage/junk area on the complex. I also found the shipping container in a box. I added the stairs to the trailers. These will be replaced with some other trailers.
Very nice work Stu!
Here are the modern trucks and cars that will go with the complex. They are all 1:43 so a bit larger then scale but with all the same scale and the large buildings with high loading docks end up looking good to me. I will weather the trailers but not the cars and trucks. I also have a picture of some great 3d printed dumpsters. The cars and trucks are from 3,000 toys.com and cost $10-$20 each. The dumpsters have tops that open and were made by Model Scenery World and cost $26 which included shipping
.
Well done, Stu.......wonderful work!
