Ralph's Layout Self-improvement Blog

I decided to keep the bridge by the stadium and made this the road to the mill. I need to create grade crossings. I found a photo in an old Model Railroader magazine that seemed to help extend the mill beyond the layout as the road passes between the silos.

My inspiration for Blue Ribbon Flour was this building I found on Google Images...a former flour mill turned condo! <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.denverinfill.com/images/redev/prospect/01_flour_mill2.jpg">http://www.denverinfill.com/images/rede ... _mill2.jpg</a><!-- m -->

I'm much more happy with the way this area looks now. I still have some details I'd like to add such as a Blue Ribbon Flour sign on the top of the elevator by the silos, some piping or other detail to mask the top edge of the magazine photo behind the silos, and some ball players for the field, but otherwise things are shaping up pretty well.
