3 - 4: An abandoned slaughterhouse slowly decays as the ele-
ments take their toll on the structure. No cows and no business
for a long time. Just rust, ruin and memories of better times.
The photos were taken on Jure Sporn's freelance layout
Wausau & Western, a Milwaukee Road subsidiary set in the
1950s. The structure is scratchbuilt from styrene, covered with
paper textures, and weathered.
5 - 5a: ARMN 765123 is the lead car in a string of airfreighted cars
waiting to leave California's San Joaquin Valley and head east.
Kevin Packard began with an undecorated Athearn blue box car
and modified it with numerous details. He painted, decaled and
weathered the model. Weathering was done with acrylic washes,
oils, and powders. The weathering was sealed with Dullcote.
