pulls a cut of empty gons
to be spotted inside its
scrap facility located alongside CSX's Downtown Spur in
Miami. Scrap steel is ground into baseball size chunks
and then loaded into the gons for shipment.
The scene was photographed on Lance Mindheim's
Downtown Spur layout.

2: A Wabash transfer run returns light to Lang
Yard after dropping a block at Fleming Yard.
The
pair of F7’s are on the elevated line at the end of Seeboth
Street in the East LaSalle switching district. The elevated
line connects Union Terminal with its coach yard located
just out of the photo to the left.
This scene is on the North American Prototype Modelers HO
scale club layout in Milwaukee Wisconsin. The structures
are both kitbash and scratchbuilt models, foliage is com-
prised of Silfor tufts and Scenic Express super trees and turf
mats. The retaining wall is assembled from plaster castings.
