ideally to a model railroad, and more time was spent exploring
the various towns along the former LV mainline.
Eventually I happened upon the town of Mehoopany, which on
the map seemed to have a large industry and yard, and found
the big Procter & Gamble plant that I would eventually model
and base my new peninsula on. Continuing north from there,
and quite by accident, I found a very photogenic grain mill
called Kintner Milling in Meshoppen, the very next town up
from Mehoopany.
1: Here is my first
view of Kintner
Milling. Note
that it was now
being used as an
antiques dealer.
The photo angle
taken from the
street gives a
view that does
not yet indicate
all of the pro-
portions of the
building, but I
had not quite
realized that yet.
Other than the
green antiques
sign, the build-
ing was mostly
unchanged from
its days as a working, railroad-served industry.
