Looks very impressive. It shows a good deal of effort put forth.

 

I have to share with you that the building with the saw tooth roof reminds me of a current dilemma I am having to deal with. I have been helping a non-profit health care provider for individuals with physical and intellectual disabilities to build a Wellness Center for their people served and for the greater community. We recently learned that a for profit business wants to build an identical facility in an old vacated saw tooth roof building. Your structure is beautiful, but boy the 1 to 1 structure is a sore point (pun intended) for me these days.

Nice job.  I like the way you have held consistency in the structures by having them all fall within the same historical time period - 1930-40's type brick and wood structures.  I also like the coal tipple.  Did you scratch build that, or was it a kit? (I think you posted a few months ago about that.  Correct?)  Needs some more detailing but that will be a great structure for filling in with all the equipment, company name, people, grimy coal dust etc.

 

Edit - PS, I just noticed the Reading name on the Tipple.  Looks super...

 

Thank you for sharing your work.

Thanks for all the reply's and the like's , Wood the coal tipple is a kit it is from K&P Brick & Building Co. and yes it was on another post Going Green but I didn't think that title fit this scene, I built all the building except the gas station & the motor bike shop , I do have more detail done I just have to take more picture's .

Thanks for all the reply's and the like's, there only a few small thing that I'm going to do on this section of the layout and it will be done ,I try to take picture down close to see the detail and make it like your there ,the board fence I have a customer that I built his platform got me hook on it he used it all over the place and I like it, I also use the stone wall a lot and all the clutter is from  Model tech ,it is time to go to another section start something new , will post more when I get something done.
