Good Morning Everyone,
I will start off with a couple of three sided buildings I constructed for a customer to hide some basement columns. Also a horizontal oil tank. Let’s see what you have been working on.

Small little update for this week. I was able to make some ties from balsa wood over the week to put in between the track. And, just a shot of the whole scene at night coming together.
Nice work guys, thanks as always for sharing your work.
I have been making progress on a number of small projects. Here are some photos of work to ballast some industrial track and sidings. I quickly learned where the seams and gaps were in the sub roadbed and had to seal and caulk from underneath. I plan a small creek and culvert in the open hole between the roads and track. Lastly, I’ve been trying to finish my house model. The stone walkway from the driveway to the back patio has been challenging. here are a couple in-progress shots.
Well Alan the work you are preparing for the train show in NJ Is all great as usual.
I’m thinking my basement support beams are just a little taller 😏🤣. Sorry, staying inside during all this snow, ice, and cold just is not bringing out the best in me.
Anthony K and Tall J , I enjoy the photos of your work. Great layouts. Thanks for sharing guys.
I have no excuse to be productive on the layout scenes. I hope to begin very soon though. I hope ☺️
@Anthony K I love your sidewalks. Excellent work.
Alan, beautiful structures and your tanks are always amazing.
With the crappy weather in WV this week and weekend, I am trying to button up this Conrad Building model. I am finishing up my interiors while 3D printing the rear of the building. I like to make pods with each interior using foam board, some 3D printed furniture and photo paper printed items as well for the flooring, wall decor, doors, etc. Some pods are lit with ceiling lights and some are not for variety. I try to seal the walls with cheap aluminum tape off the big A so there is no light leaking in or out. The lights are wired as you can see in the photo but not powered as of yet. I tried to shine some external light to show some of the interior features. Anyway, should have this project competed this week and on the layout hopefully. Have a good and safe week, stay warm in the northeast!

Excellent job on the sidewalks. I like how you followed the grade with step downs, very realistic.

Here’s the link for the tape I use. Thanks for your kind words.
Your scene looks great Tallj
Anthony, the house is looking great. It looks like there is a boom truck at the oil terminal. Is there some tank work going on ?
Mike, the building looks great.
John,
I know the feeling. This is model building weather but I did not like my walk out to the garage. My only problem here is to go outside and paint.
