Hi IRVW,

It's always great to get a compliment especially from some one who is as well read as you! Good luck with the leg.

Thanks for the comments. I was unhappy with the big pipe. Besides having a bow it just looked out of scale so I've replaced it with a smaller one. Next I'm going to work on the paving and create a road going from the industries to the rest of the layout. After that will come the ground cover.

 Looks nice Bob I like the addition of the Walthers built up office in front of the milling company. Little weathering and like the other poster mentions some ground cover and it will all start to come together nicely, like it's always been there.

Just my 2 cents worth, I spent the rest on trains. If you choked a Smurf what color would he turn?

Thanks for sharing.   Coming along nicely, and getting some ground cover in there will make it all come to life. Cheers.

This is my first scenicing effort which is still in progress. Pictured below is Miller Milling Co. and New World Pasta. (They are for real). The milling company sends it's flour to the pasta plant and then to a store near you. lol
