 The main coal bunker is complete with the exception of the outside stairs and landings. Missing rafter ends were added back on today. Still need to finish building the coal bins, truck shed, office, and supply shed , etc. which are part of the kit diorama.

Correct!  You win the prize.  Oh, wait.  There is no prize.   :D  I love little semi-hidden tributes like this.
