True enough but,they turn around and release modern cars and locomotives. The closest I can get is Walthers "Bud's Trucking" and "Lauston Shipping" background buildings and those are dated metal buildings.
However..Seeing what Mal did with Walthers "Magic Pan" has given me a idea.
I think Mal and others has done a excellent job modeling a modern industry and ISLs.
Thanks Larry, I wasn't aware that the metal siding type of warehouse were old. When I built my last UK layout I used a Pikestuff structure and a Walthers 'North American Ethanol corn storage' kit
to represent warehousing in 1980s Glasgow, Scotland.
Of course, that layout eventually was transported to upstate New York
