Progress Report 04.11.11

For the last two nights, I have worked on the DPM Woods Furniture kit to be used as the General Electric Plant in Davenport.  I have learned DPM and I just don't mix well.  The building is standing, but a far cry from a quality construction job.  The side facing the layout looks decent enough.  With some filler and paint, she might look decent.  I seem to do better with Walthers kits.  Only the shell of the building was constructed.  As with many of the kits constructed the paint, details and accessories will be added later.  Oh well.  Life goes on.

For operators, there has been a change in the Davenport Industrial Park.  Due to the orientation of the building (in particular loading docks), the box cars are loaded/unloaded on the river side now.  The steel and scrap metal cars are placed on the other side adjacent to the Electrolux track.

Earlier this evening, I worked on sanding some roads, "planted" two farm fields and started creating the base for a dirt road back behind Franklin Farms for access to the barn.
