The Sunkist Lead -- II

Here's a set of photos covering about 80% of the Sunkist Lead, starting at the Sunkist packing house at the far end. Keep in mind that these are in-progress shots. This is a Showcase Miniatures kit on a narrow shelf:

To its left is a feed dealer inspired by a poultry feed warehouse I found in Petaluma, CA.

Here's a shot of the prototype:

Typical of central and southern California scenery, this is working toward being an oil pump in the middle of a vineyard. The oil pump is from SS Ltd. I'm not satisfied with the commercial vineyard products I've seen and am still up in the air on how to finish this area.

A little farther to the left:

A set of culverts, partly inspired by the Sunset Railway shot in the previous post. The upper track is the main line.

Operationally, the piece of track where the pickup is located will be a team track area.
