Does anyone have information or photos of the Domino Sugar Refinery in Chalmette, Lousiana?  A track diagram or switching layout would be particularly appreciated.  

Thanks,

Mike

Domino Sugar

Thanks Lou!  I had found that article which lead me to believe this might be an interesting subject for a switching trackplan.

Looks Like A Good Subject

Mike,

I agree. Looking at the tracks for the facility, it would make a great switching layout.  I plan to add a sugar mill to my new layout, but it will probably be based on one of the smaller sugar beet processing facilities in the Sacramento Valley.  Keep us posted on what you find.

Lou
