Are you familiar with a paper pulp mill on the east coast of Tasmania? It has offshore loading for ships. My company (The Austin Co) designed and built it some years ago. I built a model of it. Learned a lot.
You can build all those NZ S Scale locos. Was there with the U S Marines in 1943. Rode everything I could. Love those locos.

(latitude 42 degrees South) Also a life-long model railroader, after nearly 50 years I have just purchased my first S Scale items. I have worked in most of the indoor scales (and outdoor), my first impressions of S scale are very positive. I like the size of the models, not too big, not too small. There is very little S scale in my part of the world. Although I do see some Sn3.5 in local magazines, to me it is a mysterious but interesting scale and I look forward to getting involved. best regards from Oz Steve __________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 6117 (20110512) __________ The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com __________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 6117 (20110512) __________ The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
