Here's the mounted railing with a little weathering added. I drilled properly spaced holes intentionally a bit oversized. It made it easier to get all 17 posts in the holes.IMG_20251120_181357246.jpg

Tedious work Dave, another good job accomplished, looks good.
You have great patience, more than I can muster up this week.

No pics today. I worked on adding goose neck lighting over each door on the mill building. What a pain in the butt! Literally wired as thin as hairs on a bald man's head.

I tested the lamps first. I found a few duds amongst them. I'm glad I checked first! I now have them all mounted. Next step is plugging them in to the 5/1 connector. And secure the wiring so it doesn't tear out.

I also painted up the Tichy fire escapes. and ordered some grain bins for the Genesee Brewing Malt House that is just beyond it. I had a different building planned. But couldn't get a siding to it. So the storage tanks solve filling that space, and make sense given the purpose of the building. The original building will shift to the other side of the layout


Thanks for your continue interest.

Progress on the mill portion of the harbor silo scene. It's now OSHA compliant with safety rails on the upper dust cyclone landing.IMG_20251122_204956226.jpgIMG_20251122_092829804.jpg
