This switch tender's shanty isn't the smallest one on my layout, but it is one of the most recent ones...

That little shanty is Sweet! Wayne.  I especially like the exterior wainscoting effect you did, ...no pun intended.

 

Carry on

Thanks TF. That model is a static plastic kit by Hobbyline. It is really a good looking model, especially considering it is over 50 years old. I still have a lot of detail painting to do before it is really finished.

Please carry on with big or tall structures...

GERN Industries is my largest structure, at 79" long and 19" high, and it supposedly represents about 1/3 of the entire facility (not counting the flux mine, which extends several miles out under Lake Erie...

As Al Bundy might say..."More big-uns, please!"

If you need maintenance on your model automobile, it is hard to beat the service you can get at Speedy Andrew's Repair Shop... a classic.

Here we have the RH and my C & O 2-10-4 gets a warm sleep by doing a straight shot over the TT into its cosy spot. It is too big for the TT.

 

Show me something else that is too big for where it should be.

Non railway item .... ( Easy request ! I'm wondering why it has been so many hours since David's request. )

 

A road grader is a non railway item.

 

Come on, everybody. I know you have lots of non railway stuff on your layouts.
