Walther's New Steel Industry ~~ **Future Plans**
#47
Ive been studying and looking over a map i found of the Pittsburgh Steel Mill. The plan is from 1986 but im sure the plant looks similar if not the same as it did back then. However, i also found of a plan of this Steel Mill from 1923, and the plans from 1923 and 1986 have some major differences and some major buildings being scraped and demolished lol.

I used the plans from 1986 and came up with this for the BOF part of the layout

Notice the numbers in and around the BOF plant. they correspond to this:

The plan from the map is what i tried to copy. I was able to do it fairly to the same shape, although this is a scaled down version. The Continuous Caster Building is a backround building and it is not build to the full size, its the only way i could get it in there lol

I added in a Pump House (RED) and a Water Treatment Plant (NAVY BLUE)

Now i need to add in some buildings to fill in that big empty spot lol


Question, Maybe Wayne could help me out on this? From the Continuous Caster Building, would the steel come out in ingots and then go into an ingot mold stripper then to a soaking tower building? Or does the steel come out in some other form?
