Stein's Minneapolis Warehouse district 1957 (HO)

Finally the cold snap is over. We have had it pretty cold for a couple of weeks, making it too cold to work in my layout room. Not anywhere near freezing, but just too cold to keep the room at a temperature where it was comfortable working down there.

This is how my initial plan looked on the table:



After adding an extra track here, the track plan looks like this:



I also had second thoughts about that team track - I may put a low warehouse there, since I have the one I originally intended for the barge terminal available.

Testing, it looks like this looking right along the warehouse district:

I'll try to get back to wiring tomorrow, after we are done with our monthly scouting expedition (my kids are both scouts, and I go along as one of the adults).

Smile,
Stein
