had fun working grain

I have 11 grain hoppers at the drop site for the food processing plant, I GE 44 Toner works the switching, I had so much fun switching the grain hoppers around until I had emptied all 11 of them, and sorted them for pickup. I have limited space, 5 4 tracks including the drop shed. on track can hold 5 hoppers the other 4 hopper, 3 hoppers then the loading shed spur can hold 2. There is a small drill track that allows me to switch up to 3 cars at a time.   Other areas so far I have got to play

update :)

nearly complete glue the corking and track in the 3rd section, this leaves one sections left, which is the small hidden staging area.   Yesterday I made a single track on the far end of the stage a river front rail to a small boat dock, and on top of the hidden staging is a small city scene with passenger line that runs a jay and runs above part of the layout. I am trying to make my layout as industrial as possible so running a communter line above the small business should give a unique look

SP&S RS1 picking up empty oil cans

Here is my fist blog on the new site, confusing, and I was so used to the old.   Been working on a new layout now for 2 weeks, I have all the base wood in Track laid down and have been working on glue the cork and track in place, running the electrical wires. My father is coming out from the UK at the end of the months so I want the lower level of the layout track work 100% complete, other than ballast, and hopefull the second layer, which is just a point to point going though a hidden sectio
