LED lighting

Been thinking about adding lighting to the structures I am redoing. I like to add LEDs but I have no ideal where to start. I have looked on the net and got more confused. I did a search on here but found mostly Blogs about LEDs for locomotives.

Fuel storage

I am looking for ideals and pictures of old tanker cars turned into fuel storage in railroad facilities. I seen a couple examples on the net a while back but I haven't had any luck finding the pictures again. Should have saved them when I had the chance.

Engine terminal redo.

Started redoing my engine terminal. First thing was to build a sanding rack. Still has to be painted, decal and weathered. Next is to redo the coaling tower and find a more modern water tower.

D&D Mining & Steel 2-8-0 Locomotive

Seen pictures of a steam loco still working a a steel mill in 1979 and I am modeling mainly between 70s and 80s. I figured I would do a steam loco for my mill. The paint scheme is copied from a small railroad company in Eastern KY called Morehead and North Fork. The model started out as a Bachmann Southern locomotive. I still have to weather it but here is a picture of the locomotive fresh out of the paint shop.
