Alan, just amazing. Looks like one of the quarries near me. Donald, really nice details. Gives us beginners some great ideas. Did you scratch/kitbash the crane?  Steve always inspiring weathering projects.

The crane is a combination built and kit bashed. I purchased the brass crane years ago at the TCA meet in York. I had to make it wider and taller to clear the big steam calling the Enginehouse home. You could make something similar as there are detail parts available. Check out the “Resource List” for vendors. Hope that helps.

We are placing about 20 buildings that were donated to the club   They are all craftsman kits built by the guy that donated them  He decided he would never have a layout so SCORE for us

First job was to move the refinery to make room for the new stuff

First one placed was in the farm area

Now we are working in what we call Baron Bay

Still looking for good spots for these two

Mr. Blueline,

The buildings are fantastic. You can see there have been many hours put into them. A great addition to a spectacular layout. I am glad to see that my floating roof tanks are still on the layout.

Oh Yeah   They are still there  They moved around a few times but they are still there along with the Ballantine addition you did

Great work, everyone!

More clean/repair/refresh work........this week was MAX FOODS........here is the model deconstructed into component parts......probably not a good model to constantly put up, take down and store.....but it's a focal point of my industrial modules.....

Have a great and safe weekend, folks!

Donald, thanks for the crane information. I'll check out the OGR Resource list.
