Mark, Thanks for the compliment. Truth be told those are some pictures I took at the HiRail Modular Train club layout in Indiana. Eventually I will have bigger train room and will add a steel mill complex.I would like to model it after the one from the HiRail Club's. It looks like most of the buildings are 1/4 plywood, some have corrugated siding some just the plain wood. It works. The actual steel mill complex at the club is , I guess 35 feet long, looks to be about 4 feet wide. It really does look neat and yes the backdrop colors really set the mood !
