Hi Rick,

Never been told I had a great set before, but thanks anyway!

I'm just creating a few activities to include with a late 50's/early 60's version of the Springfield Terminal. By then the Slack shoddy mill was closed and the ST was using their old coal trestle to deliver salt for the town of Springfield. Found out the hard way that none of the 40 foot covered hoppers would make it around the tight switch and curve so I had to stop and draw my own... while I was at it I thought I'd do a few from the rest of the neighborhood.
