Extraction plant installed

I have installed the extraction plant on a layout extension shelf at the inside end of the aisle through my main layout.  From the aisle you are right next to the plant.  To see the other side you must look across 10 feet of layout.


The plant is located next to my narrow gauge subsidiary.


This view of the other side of the plant shows a little of the plant.  I will probably add some more details to this plant but I wanted to get this posted.

Extraction plant office

I have completed the office for the extraction plant which is the last structure for this small industry.  The windows for this model are a combination of cast metal on the front and back and plastic on the sides.  I do not know the manufacturer of the cast metal windows as they were among many cast metal windows and doors in a box of parts.


The chimney on the left was made using a plastic sprue with a metal top cap.  The roof was shingled.


The right side has a shed with an open door.  Inside the shed are various details including boxes, barrels and a figure.


Above is a view of the rear.

Next I will install this structure resulting in all structures installed.  Then I need to finish adding scenery and some details.
