From What’s On My Workbench:  Lou Champagne gives a photo and diagram of his latest industry on his layout. From the Editor’s viewpoint this would be a great addition to any layout providing a crewmember with lots of switching in a compact area. This space is for any member to show off their latest build, model, or section of layout. Please don’t hesitate to send along some pictures and a brief description.

This mill is serviced by Lou’s Cape Porpoise & Western RR and the mill switcher is a Proto 2000 0-8- 0. A mirror behind the “piping bridge” effectively deepens the scene. Next up is doing the mill yard’s track scenery as well as finding an appropriate backdrop photos.
