Well the week started off with a decent sized shipment of discounted Plastruct - mostly tubing, ladders, motors, and lots of warren trusses - thanks to a model railroad friend that has an inside track. I used some of the new materials to continue work on the Electric Melt shop - adding a truss frame on the side and 1/4" channels and I-beams to the framework. I still need to add quite a few diagonals but it's getting there.
The subject matter of this blog is the Steel Industry and Railroading. Most of the posts deal with my attempt to model an integrated steel mill in HO scale, however, there will also be posts on real railroading and the real steel industry as well as other industries, and for that matter, general topics, that interest me.
