G'day Mal & All, The work here is really impressive. But I have one point to pick regarding the grain hopper un-loader, a rather practical one in the real world. The covered hopper looks like it is almost right at the end of the rails but there is still one more discharge door to line up over the grating. Will the customer only get two thirds of his consignment? Probably a mistake I'd make myself in the course of building a layout. Can you fit in another inch or so of rail?
Regards, Andrew G.

Good point Andrew. When designing the layout, with, of course, space at a premium, I simply figured on centering the car over the unloading grid.

However, after some foliage clearing, the end hopper bay can now be discharged.
