I worked on the L'anse depot after I finished the Rico model, completing it in March.  I then started the construction of a couple of DSS&A caboose models.  I used plans for the small window caboose that were published in the SLHTS magazine to build the model above.  It is scratch build from styrene and brass, and is painted /lettered in an early 1950's scheme.

This is a large window caboose built to the same dimensions as the small window caboose.  Since I was building one it was not much more effort to build a second one.  I used photographs as a guide in construction.  This model is painted in a 1940's era scheme.  

Modeling the DSS&A requires a great deal of scratch building, very few commercial models exist of equipment and structures.

Here is a model of the L'anse Michigan depot.  The plans were published in the Soo Line Historical Society publication.  This model was constructed in styrene. 

My current project is to build a model of an F6 consolidation.  I am looking at kit bashing a Spectrum Baldwin Consolidation.  The first step is to build up a closer representation of the tender.  The above picture shows where I am at in the project at this time.
