I am still chipping away! I finally got around to adding hood bells to my MTH - Duluth Missabe & Iron Range SD high hood units. Don’t know why MTH failed to include that detail which is such a hallmark characteristic of the DM&IR high hood units. I purchased the high hood bells from Minatures by Eric. I modified the stock bell bracket to more closely resemble those used by the DM&IR. The parts are cast brass.
I have powered my building lights and added outdoor lighting around the stations.
Have test planted some trees recently purchased from Menards and added a few of my own creation, to which I need to add more foliage.
I will be entertaining some young engineers tomorrow so I still have a bit of cleanup to do!
