Thanks A2TwrOpr, moving one small sep at a time.
Thanks Johne230, it's funny how long you can stand in front of the layout and stare at it until you have some sort of idea of what you might do.
Jeff, thanks a lot for the kind words.
Thanks Lynn, I never thought I would get this far, still have a lot of stuff to do but thats ok, do not know what I would do if I actually finished.
Tony, thank you sir. The home built elevator was kind of a test to see if it would work. I set a milk carton on the layout one day and looked at it, I said to myself that might be a good grain elevator. I used strips of cereal box to simulate wood planks and glued them to the outside of the milk carton. I found a good deal on the Walthers elevator on ebay, normally I see them for around $35 plus shipping. I found this one for $23 plus $5 shipping, so I thought I would make a grain area on the layout. Thanks again for looking.
Scott
