Most definately Russ. The large stacks in the track centers were used for steam engines. The ones that Wayne and I are referring to are the four small brick chimneys at each corner of the structure and they were more then likely used for wood burning stoves to heat the interior during the colder months.

I agree Galen, an interior shot would be useful indeed. Got any? Misngth

Anyways back to building... Got to finish a couple more doors and then start on the front wall sections.
