Pretty much new to the model railroading experience, I have become facinated with making my own structures. I started out using balsa wood, then switched to styrene, but am having trouble finding plans for structures and have had to pretty much design my own structures from pictures etc.....

Are there plans out there for yard buildings, houses, gateman towers or switching towers, etc. that are available on the web that I can download? I model in N-Scale, but could convert HO plans if that is all there are. Thanks.

It seems that the federal government in Canada is intruding into our hobby.Floquil and Poly scale will get very hard to find.I personally have no luck with water based paint so I will be in trouble.It looks like we will be turned into criminals smuggeling paint into Canada.I will update this info when I know more

KATY CONVERTED SOME AS16 TO EMD POWERED UNITS WITH DYNAMIC BREAKS.  I HAVE SOME OLDER STEWARD AS16 MODELS TO CREATE THAT CONVERSION.  I HAVE BEEN HAVING NOT MUCH LUCK FINDING INFORMATION SO I CAN CONVERT THE MODELS FROM STANDARD AS16 TO THE UNITS WHICH KATY UPGRADED.

Newby Chemicals is a facing siding that is shared by a second facing siding to a team track open freight platform.  Also there is a grain terminal facing with two tracks (5 car capacity).  There is also a trailing siding which goes into a lumber yard.  Newby Chemicals provides loading and unloading for a variety of products.  Four tanks are modelled in the facility though there are pipes leading off the layout.  Two of the tanks are for Chlorine (Cl) and two for Sulphur (S).
