More early Alcos, please.

Well it seems I have a second picture I recently took that meets that criteria!

How 'bout more Alcos please, bonus points if it comes with a locomotive of another make!

At over six feet in length, GERN Industries is by far the largest industry on my layout, and a great traffic generator...

General Industries is Walther's Fireproof Storage & Transfer Background Building.The name came from a nearly hundred year old local business that was destroyed by fire a few years ago. I mounted it diagonally on the corner and built side walls and a roof from black foam-core to give the building some depth and provide stability.

More factories, please.

Show me a scratch built building

Except for the windows (left-overs from a couple of Walthers kits) the Dunnville station was scratchbuilt from .060" sheet styrene...

While it doesn't show in the photo, the walls are scribed to represent Ashlar stone blocks.

More scratchbuilt structures, please.
