Relocating Watersmeet Engine Terminal on the CNW

The first series of photos is of the Terminal as it was currently located. Also in these photos is the Watersmeet branch line trackage and some industries. (to be removed)

Part 2:

Buildings set in place

Gluing in the fillers to bring grade crossing pieces to correct height. The small pieces between the rails are .030 styrene and the more rectangular pieces are .060 thick x 1/4" wide shown by the green pencil, but any width would work as long as the space allows it.

Another new building in Ashland Ind. Dist.

The Sanborn Lumber Co. is built and positioned on the layout. It is located in my Ashland Ind. Area. I still need to do the signage, add the details, do the entry driveway & parking lot. It is a Walthers  "Walton & Sons Lumber Co." kit. The first three photos are shown below.
