L&N Industrial Rail Spur

[FCIN]

Ed,I like your current design.
Have you tried the test operation yet?

Larry, I'm still in the process of laying out the track and making some "minor" changes as I go. Had to quit working on it last night but am waiting for the boss to get home from her shopping spree so I can get back to it. I hope to get it laid out and operational later tonight.

One thing I want to do is to get this look for the warehouse/industries along the back side of the benchwork (apologies to cnw1961) - "shoebox" type structures, but with an assortment of car types spotted at them:     It's rather surprising what sort of cars you'll see spotted on industrial spurs by those "shoebox" structures - not only box cars, but tank cars, covered hoppers of all sorts, etc. Investigating what is in the structure has lead to some really good industry candidates and ones that aren't often modeled.

BTW..The benchwork for Slate Creek is built and I have reached the final plan in this 30 month ongoing saga.

I heard that! Seems like planning is all I've gotten done for just as many months as you - time to get building! Just getting the track laid and structure mockups built will be a real accomplishment!
