Some of the damages from the collapse of the locomotive shelving unit shown here.

 

Most of the damage was repairable but a few were total losses.

Specialty Minerals mines a unique form of Dolomite Limestone and prcesses it for shipment.  This is the N scale version on my Housatonic RR layout.

Let's see something electrifying.  Show me an electrical substation.

I sure hope I can find a home for this neat scene from Walthers. I only did minimal detailing on it and hope to find a place to shoehorn it in but it is looking like a slim chance.

Anything electrical (including locomotives) please.

Your rock formations remind me of the ones near the Iron Range by Duluth, right down to the colour.  Thanks for the incentive.
