Show me something else incomplete or unfinished.

I didn't have to wander far to find something like that Whistling

These Hulett ore unloaders and ore boat have been begging my attention for, oh, fifteen years or so Whistling

Please show me another project needing completion.

This sawmill was the first structure to be placed on my On3 layout,about 3 years ago.It still sits empty,with no detail. Someday...

Please show something you have completed on your layout.

The most recently "completed" item on my layout is this modified Korber roundhouse....

However, there's no ground cover or details around it, and the turntable needs to be modified to improve its performance.  Both the turntable and the roundhouse are useable, though, and hopefully will look better when their surroundings are done.

Show me a project in-progress, please.

Show me another project in progress.

A few weeks ago I had this orphaned corner of the layout:

Recently I've been inspired to turn it into a chemical plant, possibly a bag balm and sheep dip factory.

Let us continue with "works-in-progress" please.

Show me your largest rail served business,please.

At 78" in length, GERN Industries is the largest on my layout, and also the biggest generator of traffic for the railroads serving it....

...the modelled portion represents about 2/3 of the plant's size, not counting the mine, which extends out, under Lake Erie, for about 2.5 miles, and still growing due to the boom in the world's demand for high quality flux.

Show me more of your largest industries, please.

Size can be relative I guess. The Omar Iron Works is the largest industry on the Country Roads portable model layout.

Show me a scene with any type of boat or water craft.
