L&N Industrial Rail Spur

[FCIN]

Don't ever feel that we're tired of your postings. I love to see the planning process and the thought behind it.

Appreciate that Mike. I do wonder at times if people get a bit bored with seeing all these seemingly endless series of changes that some of us make. Often very minor changes at that. I really need to just go with one plan and built it! I'm not getting any younger....

I've had one of those "why didn't I think of that before?" moments today. You know how you tend to ignore what is right in your own backyard so to speak?

Was in Lexington today looking around town at some of the various rail served industries in the area and went past the Smucker's Jif Peanut Butter plant. So it has me doing some thinking.... (Oh no! That could be dangerous!). Hum? A fairly large industry in a compact area with several car types and located on a former L&N (now R J Corman) industrial spur...

Might do a posting on that facility tonight for the Industries Along The Rails thread and the type of rail service they received when I worked for the L&N and what they receive today.

I did rearrange the track plan on my layout as shown in the posting from yesterday and operationally it's good. Just not sure that I have the two large industries in the right spots. But we'll see where this latest idea might lead before I do anything else.
