I've been working a little bit on this structure kit when I've had a few moments here and there. This will become the "DEER CREEK BREWING CO." on my train layout (if and when I get around to building one). If you have been following my blog at all, you will recognize this structure from an earlier posting when I was describing my stone wall casting.
When completed, the "Business" will have a rail spur on this side as shown and a small dock on the back side of the building for truck deliveries (and that's where the concept comes in...
... This end wall will get a second sign that will say - "DEER CREEK BREWING Distribution Center". The... uh... "product" will come in by truck, be repackaged in the Distribution Center and then go out by rail to the various points of consumption. Where it will be coming from initially is shown below...
These two pictures are shots of cast products available from an online company called Rusty Rail. I am going to pick up these two items to create the Deer Creek Brewing "Bottling Plant". They will have a location somewhere along the landscape feature, Deer Creek on my layout and will use trucks to cart the moonshine to the distribution plant. I thinking that perhaps I can reproduce that crate of moonshine bottles and create a small mold with mold putty to produce inventory for my delivery truck and both company locations.
And that's it for this update. Thanks for looking - PM
