Changing my modeling "flavor", and seeking inspiration during the building phase

Well, not to much to explain, as that's what the video is for. I decided to focus on industrial "what if" shortline railroading as an experiment, until I finish the rest of my layout.

My Past Meets the Present

In this video, among other things, my friend Corey (R's Trains) brought his perfect HO scale (Athearn) D&H 7303.
