Thank goodness for a rainy day, finally got back on this. I ran all the bus wires for this section,soldered in the drops and put the backdrop board on. Now for some clouds and the background hills.

Greg,
The far back line will be for the lumber yard and the local farmers co-op. The next one up will be for the co-op also bringing in grain for the feed mill and LP gas. the long angled one will serve a rock and aggrete supplier. The very front short spur will have a small ice house on it.
