My Iron Foundry Project

Post by willburton »

I thought you all might be interesting in the route I'm building. Not a route exactly, but a small factory rail system.
I've still got a lot to do, but it's progressed to a point where I can reveal it to the public.

Very impressive. I really do like your buildings.

Can't wait to see if you tackle a steelworks!

Edit: I notice Parkfield is no longer on the list. Has she gone for a paint-job?

Hi Kevin

What a mess - but that is a compliment on the way you have captured the atmosphere of a busy foundry and the inevitable debris that heavy engineering leaves.

Very nice and something a bit different.

looks fantastic! I have all the objects you have released so far and they are great, really love the overhead crane.
Please do release the rest of the objects, right now i could really use that scrap metal pile. :)
Keep up the great work!

A steel works would indeed be great, but I think I'll leave that to someone else!
Parkfield will be back soon. I just changed the main picture, so now it's awaiting approval.
However, because of the popularity of the G girls, I'm tempted to do a clean version of Parkfield!

Thanks!
I just need to do a bit of work along the edges of the scrap pile to break them up a bit before I release it.
There is a new version of the crane just released (see the first picture above). It fixes a shadow problem, and has a longer track. It also has a few texture improvements

Hi Kevin,

Looks superb ! - really captures the atmosphere of a old victorian foundry 'modernised' for the 1950's onwards look that you see in many railway photo's.

Thanks for making some of this available for download.

Cheers
Paul
