Switching the Maytag Plant at Herrin, Illinois

Two scenes from my latest HO micro layout. The Herrin Micro w/staging tracks is 523 square inches. The baseboard measures 19 x 30 inches on its longest sides and is L-shaped.

Like the scenes Tom, also your weathering and projection of time.  And I always liked the Maytag man too.   

Thanks and regards, Peter
