...still the request is show me another power plant

If you look real closely to the left, you'll see the Walthers Tri-State Power plant behind the roto-dumper.  I could say this is where my steel mill gets its electricity from; but, truth be told, it has been repurposed as a baghouse for hot dust and gases from the adjoining Basic Oxygen Furnace mill.  The coal cars in the background deliver metallurgical coal for the coke ovens.

Since I'm not sure this qualifies, show me either an actual power plant model or any other lineside industry that consumes coal.

Thank you Michael.  I have been a lurker for far too long and have enjoyed watching your layout progress as well.  The building isn't anything fancy just a Pikestuff 2 bay engine house kit.  It is spiffed up with Walthers rooftop details, the blower on the top and the vents on the side.  Inspiration came from Cody G.

The coal cars are Walthers UP in the 6 pack with JWD coal loads.

EDIT: I should mention that the coal is in Walthers Bethgon Coalporter cars with couplers replaced with Kadee.

http://www.walthers.com/exec/search?manu=372&category=Part&split=30

I am still developing the area as you can see by the unfinished nature. So will share more as I finish.  Right now I am working on a drive in so maybe some time before I get to more on the power plant.   In the meantime here is another angle.

And still the request is show me another power plant

Ooooooooh NICE! I really like that scene. Love that rotary dumper. What building did you use for that? Can we see more pics of that whole scene? Because I'm building an Oil Refinery and the power plant is off layout, but I have a rotary dump.

Are those Exact Rail hoppers? They looks exactly like my Exact Rail coal hoppers.

Kind of funny:

Tristan (the plush duck in the photo) was riding along on Goose #5 when it derailed.  I think he fell off and pushed the Goose over.  Not sure exactly what happened as my sister was running the Goose.  But the resulting photo is kind of funny.  It even looks like he is frowning.

 Here's a real one.

 

 Think it has the same power plant as a F3 and maybe trucks. Frame was not as strong so they where not around long. But, there is still one in services, if you search U Tube you will find a link.

 So, something else odd would be great!

No Rio Grande?  Ok, let me try to be a little more generic.

Show me your most recent picture of something on your layout.

Great Pic Michael,

Time's up on the request though.

I believe the last request is for multiple boxcars from the same railroad.

I have shown my causeway before, but I don't think I have shown here this picture of the Sherzer rolling lift bridge at the middle of the causeway.  My water so far is just painted bathroom ripple paneling.

Show me multiple boxcars from the same railroad.

I suppose this would qualify as a harbor scene:

Show me any scene with water in it (stream / river / lake / ocean)
