Rainbows in the Lehigh Valley Gorge

Adding some details a little bit at a time here near the breaker.  Turns out the manager of the Hazle Steam Plant is a gardener and outdoor type.  Probably helps in the summertime when he doesn't have to make steam for the breaker.  He also likes having breaker employees over to take their lunchtime breaks in the shade of a couple of mature trees and has thrown a couple of picnic tables out.  (I got the tables as laser cut kits from Etsy a few years ago along with some dog houses and mailboxes).  There's a Woodland Scenics loader and some miners coming this week that I'll place be placing in the area between breaker and steam plant.

   

I did finally run the steam lines from the plant to the breaker and secured them with a couple of steel truss supports (more Clever models cardstock fabrications).  The lines themselves are leftover plastic sprues from some kits.

   

Here's a shot of the breaker area via drone.  I'm thinking about running another conveyor from the breaker into the brick warehouse, but until I make a final decision, I'm playing around with ideas on how I want to scenic the area across the tracks.

   

Last but not least, I'm playing around with some ideas for backdrop additions.  Found a couple of semi-current long angle shots of the city of Hazleton.  Still trying to find the right magnification and eyeline, but this is a rough idea for now.
