A cool prototype in Stockholm Sweden!

here is a link to the track plan as it was back in 1916. It still was part of the main line and still housed the locomotive shops with a round house and a turntable, also the low railroad bridge and the connection over the strait was also removed. I guess as the main line was relocated over a huge bridge some one kilometer to east, most of the former shop buildings were raised and some typical multistory warehouses were built there along a street to serve them. new switches was added to be able to deliver a freight car or two to the ware houses. Back in 1987, most of these tracks were there and an occasional box car was parked there. But at the time of photos shown here most of the track to the ware houses were gone along the ware houses. Walthers American Hardware Supply kit is pretty close to a typical ware house here.

Back in the 1930.s a new street was built along the bluff pararell to the tracks and reached over the strait with a steel bridge, later on two more lanes was added along with another identical bridge. I guess the run around tracks were shortened and the waterfront was transformed in to a dock and one of the tracks at the freight house was extended along the dock and later a concrete plant was built there. Today, the dock is used by private boat owners that are middle of transforming the old tug boats, fishing boats or even former old minesweepers in to some form of leisure crafts.
