Looking Around the Interim Layout, Part One

     In this post, we will look at old photos of the interim layout. Railfanning the layout as it were.  .

Alco S-2 22 is spotting a load at the Curren Candy Company.  This structure was built from Art Curren's book:  "Kit-Bashing HO Model Railroad Stuctures."  

Some shots taken in the Central District.  Here, a B&O box is across the street from a parking/alleyway between the Kozy Kitten tavern and Stan's service Station.

 

Boxcab 1 is in front of the Orient Pacific Trading company building with an empty from the Schoeneman Brewery elevator.

A view down the street.  Looking pretty busy at Stan's.

Central District view of some trackage serving the Schoenman Brewery receiving and Bottling House, Midwest Terminal Warehouse, and the city Fruit Exchange.

Airial view of part of the central district showing the Schoeneman complex and the produce and merchandise team tracks.

Baldwin AS-616 A and B units leading a train past the Central District.  The track in front heads down to the West Linncott industrial area.
