To All: Here are photos of Smith Pipe & Steel by Vinny of Phoenix, Arizona, for his BNSF "Peavine" Line. Great interior details! He scratch built this industry. If I did not know otherwise, his work could pass for HO Scale! That goes to show you how far the N Scalers have advanced in their modeling. Yours, Elvin Howland/E. St.Louis Rail Group Layout

Smith Pipe and Steel

There is a few pictures of this industry at this Peavine site.

More direct links to photos:

- of the industry sign - which BTW is al that representes this industry on my layout, at least for now

- the building modeled above

- and the track leading to the industry

Vinny, you're doing great models.

I do not want to hijack this tread, but there seams to be some Peavine-modelers hanging out here. There once was a Peavine-group on Yahoo, but it never got many followers. your work sure wets the appetite.
