Champion Meat Packing Dimensions
Posted by bearman on Thursday, March 6, 2008 6:54 AM
I'm still struggling with a meat packing plant for my layout.  If anyone is using Champion Meat Packing my question is, can the boiler house be separated from the main bldg, and what would be the dimensions of the footprints of the resulting bldgs?

I've got this on my layout with the smokestack between the main building and the boiler house and it comes out 16 1/2" by 9" with the loading chute behind the main building.  I also added the stock yard next to the boiler house and that adds another 15" in width so the whole footprint is about 32" x 9"

Any idea as to the footprint size of the boiler house alone?

Boiler house is about 6" x 3 1/2" and 8" tall - its a stand alone building from the main plant
