As industries go, the Redwing Flour Mill is not that large, but it is the largest industry on the BRVRR layout.

Show me a General Store.

Remember its your railroad

Unfinished? Ack! That could be the entire railroad. Here is Smith-9th Street, and it has probably been on hold the longest of any station on my layout, and yet should be so simple to finish. Go Figure.

Show me some signals

I wanted tankcars representing the 8 main brands of oil and gasoline sold in Texas in the mid 1950s.  To get them, I had to paint them.  And cobble decals.  I've got 7 or the 8.

Show me something that was EASY.

Something I decalled--let's see, that would be 98% of the 55 steam locomotives I own, LOL!

Show me something you re-painted.
