The heavy load crane kit arrived. The length is reduced just long enough to unload the cars. This is a quick and dirty test scenery to get an impression what I am after and to understand the dimensions of the crane assembly.

To my surprise became the building quite large to accommodate the crane. The opening is over 5' high.

That leads to the question how to manage the appearance of that large ugly "show box" to fit nicely on the layout. May be I will continue the buildings in the background. I will need some time to find my solution.
