Well this week I'm working on my first big scratchbuild since 2003. A concrete grain elevator. Don't ask why, I just felt like building one. So far I have the eight silos mostly done. They're made from 2" schedule 40 PVC pipe, a bit of plaster and glue and some gray latex house paint. I sanded the silos before painting so they look to have a texture like concrete. Each one is 11 and 13/16 inches tall or eighty-six scale feet in HO. Each silo has a plaster plug in the top so holes can be easily drilled later to mount details.

Hey congratulations on your promotion to Moderator over at MR forums. With your vast and extensive knowledge of all things modelraiload you should easily be able to help all the noobies over there get their layouts up and running.

Great locos guys, and Jeff that is going to be a massive elevator!
I still haven't done anything layout wise but a friend (thanx Felix!) took some great shots of the CFL train when it came thru town:
