Two new buildings in progress for the Ashland Industrial Area on my HO CNW Peninsula Div. RR

I have a question, well actually two -

First: It is what is the best/preferred way to respond to a comment/question asked on blog post? How does the person asking the question know that a answer has been posted? Does the answer get posted in the original blog post in the comments section or do I create another blog post? I am not sure how to respond, I have just been answering in the comments area.

Second: Is there a way of getting the following into a post without retyping it every time?

Thanks for any and all help.

The build of Holland Furnace Co. is finished and is in it's location in Ashland Ind. Area, Ashland, WI on my HO scale CNW Peninsula Div. RR. I still will have to add some people & maybe interior & exterior lighting, but that will come later.

Phase 2:

When I started to kit bash this structure I realized that I wasn't going to be able to get the same top cornice on the new walls as the style on the kit. So I cut the top cornice off the kit walls and added my own. It is made up of two pieces of styrene, the first one added was 3/16" angle, & the second is a piece of .030" x .125" strip glued to that.

The new cornice:

Phase One:

My latest kit bashed structure project pictured below is the "Holland Furnace Co." which will be located in the Ashland, WI Industrial area on my CNW - Peninsula Div HO scale RR.

Here are some pictures of my latest rolling stock project. (Not the loco) I am going to enter it in my annual local NMRA/NCR/Division 6 Fall Show this Sunday. This show is something we do every year on the first Sunday after Thanksgiving.

It is open to the public and is a Show & Tell type of show. There are no sales just show the public what Model RR is all about.

More pictures of a couple of recent projects for a couple of clients.

This is the final group of photos. These are of the areas that do not have scenery or all of the structures built. I do have card board foot prints in place to hold the industries spot and give the operators a idea of where and what they will be for our OPS sessions. So here goes.

Looking East across the Watersmeet Engine Terminal at Watersmeet, MI and into Ironwood, MI. A lot of detail work and building construction left to be done in all of the following areas. But progress not to bad for starting with a totally blank canvas basement just 11 years ago.
