This morning I installed the spur into Glacier Gravel.
I was originally going to have a turnout coming off the main so there would be two tracks here (since that what the kit is modeled for), but decided to keep this a simple, small business with a single track. I'll model a cement pad in the right bay where trucks can drive in to get a gravel load.
I also installed the remote tortoise hardware for the feedmill spur on the main.
Now I can fill in the hole left there for install access, and then install the tortoise underneath the benchwork.
