Looking for industries ideas to fit this track plan
Posted by CoreyH on Sunday, October 8, 2023 5:33 PM

Hey guys I am building a small switching layout roughly based on this layout and I need ideas on two industries to replace the peanut processing plant and cotten Gin listed in the plan that could work in buildings like that. 

 

thanks for the help

That website requires one to log in to view.  Many of us don't care to do that.

In this forum you can't attach anything.

You have to follow the instructions here

Imgur.com or Imgbb.com are good and free places to post pics, where the rest of us do not have to sign in.

To echo what has been said, can't see the track plan, but to get some general comparison for when we do get it:

What era do you want to model? What railroad(s) and what region? Is there any type of rolling stock you absolutely love and want to use? Is it a more "watch the trains run" layout you're looking for, so just a nice scenic industry for a background, or do you want to do operations? If you do want operations, do you want to move rolling stock within the same industry, or just do set outs and pick ups at the industry?
