......or a farm with the fences funneling down to a meat packing plant .....

Catt #1 applies to me as well and we are having plent of cold damp weather. Right now it's 17 degrees with a light coating of snow, which was preceded by 3 inches of 40 degree rain.
Doc and T, a meat packing plant for dairy cows? Really?

You're right: I do know that Holsteins are dairy cattle, so I should have said dog food plant instead - or perhaps a cattle feed plant....I believe that's the method currently in favour for spreading mad cow disease.

Mike , CANADIAN dairy cows are different .

T

Yeah, a lot of mixed herds here in the '30s, although it's a little odd that they've all got a similar build and size.




Mike, these cows in the background, despite their colour, are very closely related to those on your layout....




...as they're also N scale.


Wayne

I think you are right Doc, T I'll have to take your word for it.

Tyson, looking good! And a classic scene if there is!

Ahah! That's what you get when all genitors for a race are from the same ancestry!!!

The N scale cows trick is awesome... I once thought about using N scale building in background, never dared to do it.

Took a break from the cows and the scenery building and played with the camera:

Great picture! Nice engine house too, by the way.
