Sunday Scenic Showcase August 9,2020

Very nice plant, Alan.

There are numerous shanties scattered around both my layouts. Here are a few on the 12’-by-8’ – completed in 2004. I’ve posted pictures of almost all the structures on both my layouts and there is little else to show…

Alan, thank you for starting and maintaining one of my favorite serial threads.

But c'mon; enough of the studio shots of your work and work area--they are always pristine.

How about a down and dirty photo of a work in progress where the work space is a bit untidy; messy even.  No offense intended.  Some folks are simply uncommonly neat when they work--but not I.

Carl,

I hope this one is messy enough.

Alan, great plant and like the picture of your "messy" work area !!  Melgar nice little sheds, great weathering.

                                PLASTICVILLE TURNPIKE / HWY, Phase 3...

I hope to start the benchwork some day soon.

Thanks again Al for supplying me the sign support structure!

Another great week of pix.

@SIRT watching the evolution of the Interchange has been fun. I get NJTP flashbacks (not good ones) every time I look at it

Can't wait to see it on your layout.

Bob

Great work as usual.  Here are a couple pics of the dock area i have been working on for my seatrain lines crane.  Also a fixed crane for the dock area of my just started cement factory.  Still need to finish out fixed crane rigging and details but my hats off to the clam shell bucket kit that crow river sells, its a great piece.

I have found a new Rustoleum spray color: Chalked Aged Gray.....

My attempt is to try lighter, less weathered look.....I am trying it on the Plasticville Police Station....

I will everyone posted as things develop.....

BTW everyone, fantastic work and pics thus far!!!!!

Peter

Great looking scenes....are the buildings scratch or kit built? I especially like this one

STUBBYGDA            Looking GOOD!!!  I agree with your comment about CROW RIVER clam shell bucket kit. They suggested I go with the HO version when I described my project to them. I noticed the 9v battery hook up; is the crane movable? Thought I would throw in an idea I came up with maybe someone might find useful. I mounted my crane on a pill bottle; turning the cap to reposition the crane as desired. Really like your buildings also.

Melgar - kits or scratched built? Either way excellent work!
