Alex, Thank you. We have a ways to go to get this area of the layout ready. Thanks again
Popsrr; How do you keep your workshop so clean and orderly and still make the kind of progress these pictures show? Both the progress and the shop are amazing!
Very nice, thanks for posting!Certainly one of my favorite structures.

Trainman, My Silo complex was made by Alan Graziano in New Jersey. I was just in his shop last week and it is all very clean, neat and orderly. He is a real artist with his creations. Thanks for your comments.
Travis, Thank you for your comments. I have been a fan of elevators and silos also for a long time.I also like the many colors and hopper cars that carry the various Grains,Flour, Dry Sugar,Salt and many other food rawmaterials.
Bill,
Chad did a very nice job with the platforms for the stuctures. It sure looks way nicer than it did on my workbench.
Alan Graziano
Alan, Thanks. When we run some track under S-1 at elevation49 we will replace the front 2x4 with a 2x2 for clearence. After that We will determine a portal size through the area under S-1 and ask you to make a matching retaining wall with a portal for both sides of that area.
Nice job Pops, your living big.
Good work keep it up.
Bob
Bob Thank you. We are happy to have this group of silos sitting on the bench work. We have a little last moment of tweeking it. Alan Graziano from New Jersey made these for us. He did do a very nice job on them.
Thanks again Bob!!
