SteveS Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 Hello everyone been awhile since I’ve been on line here. Am looking for photos drawings, etc...on the coal screens (which I think is our terminology) for structure used in loading coal. I’m trying to do a layout based on a coal mine that loads coal similar to PGE’s moving coal layout which I has visited a few years ago. Anyhow these structures I see on different layouts while they may differ in size seem to have the same basic design. Are these structures scratch built? what kind of materials are used as to what appears to be a brick structure set upon steel beams. thank you from the USA Steve West Chicago, Illinois Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
