More structures around Harrisburg...

The last week has seen some major structure building going on, in particular the area around Harrisburg.

As this is to be a heavy industrial area the structures needed to fit the feel & what would normally be seen in the area.

Along with the Walthers - Modular kits several other kits have now been constructed.



The area is now at a point that has a good mix of structures and can easily be switched.  There is some minor track work alterations to be made for the rolling mill loading building.



Next stage is to continue to move around adding the structures and tuning the areas.

Update:  I said I would post up a view of the finished area and what it would like with the street running scene through these buildings.  Here is a plan of what it will look like with the paved road running over the sidings & crossover...


More soon as the build continues...

  1. In the 2nd picture, red brick building on the left, it looks like spotting more than one car at the dock will foul the diamond. Is it just the camera angle? Or do you plan it as a single car spot?

    1. Hey Alan,
      You're right it will foul the crossover, but that entire section in front of the red brick building on the left will be street running and concreted all the way through. So if there is not a boxcar spotted, it may well have a delivery truck, all part of the operating scheme to make things interesting... Jas.

    1. I'll add a 2D aerial view shortly of the structures and the roads so that you can get an idea of the scene...
