Sailormatlac 2012 Resolution Challenge

Glad to hear the abbatoir got a reprieve!

I tried a few other versions of the warehouses, but it still didn't work. I love the Legrade signboard with the pig! Anyway, the abattoir got this "end of line" feeling.

I'll also saw few scraps of wood to mock up the lumber piles since they will have an important scenic role to play.

My biggest problem right now is to figure out British-American Oil distributor. The siding is curved. They received bulk shipment in tank car, but also motor oil and other goods in boxcars. The space is limited and I wanted to have a truck loading platform like this one:



Boxcars were unloaded from a platform. Platform always looks awkward on cruved track, which means I should relocate it on the straight end of the siding, having the tank cars unloaded from pipes on the curved section. I'll see what I can do.

Question: how they unload tank car in such a small oil dealer. By flexible pipes? My guess is that there's a pumphouse to send the oil in the tanks. Well, I'm at loss!

I also design a cross-section for the industrial avenue including the nice power lines you can see in the electrion traction picture I posted previously. This scenery will run all along the amovible cassette, which will probably be quite permanent.
