Building Sn3 and N Worlds

A Start on the Coal Mine / Tipple

I got the main building well underway today. There are covered loading docks on either side - next step.  A fun model - very well engineered and laser cut.  And the directions are very good.  It from Blair Line Models (http://blairline.com).  This part of the model needs some touchup for the floor beams and the edges that couldn't be hit with the air brush.

Still thinking abut names - the kit is actually The Cash Mine from Utah.  A mine tipple but I am going to say it is the tipple as well as the mine shaft.  So #1 is the John Coal Train Mine and #2 is The Johnny Cash Mine.

The extra photo shows the manufacturer's build with weathering.  Given it is a coal tipple it will get heavy weathering and coal dust.
