LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted April 14, 2020 (edited) Hello everyone, after my Steel Mill Cement Plant I want to present my new industrial plant: the Cereal Docks The Cereal Docks is a grain storage station for road and rail distribution. The terminal consists of 8 main silos where cereals are kept thanks to a ventilation and humidity control system. The plant, due to its height, is equipped with intermittent lights to signal obstacles to flight! Due to the abundance of cereals I thought of adding a cat to the plant to avoid the presence of mice! See you at the next industrial plant... A special thanks to @helos Edited April 14, 2020 by LEGO Train 12 Volts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Man with a hat Posted April 15, 2020 Nice! Great realistic looking structure. Looks simple but you put quite some nice details as well that make it a really great building. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Legownz Posted April 15, 2020 Congrats on getting featured on EB!!! Beautiful structure with lots of great detail! I like your Lego cat as well as your real one! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Laura Beinbrech Posted April 15, 2020 This is a really awesome grain elevator (at least that's what we call these structures in The States). It even looks a lot like one that was installed about 15 years ago on a recently refurbished Norfolk Southern siding outside the one town near where I live. Main difference is that the one where I live has the bay for loading & unloading grain trucks is parallel to the tracks, instead of perpendicular. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Toastie Posted April 15, 2020 Dear Emanuele, as others have said: Beyond belief. As usual. You know, after all these fantastic models you have created - the feeling of joy coming up upon opening the post - is a regular thing happening to me. "Regular" - not "used to" - very big difference. The building is beyond my grasp - but the little mouse and the cat is my absolute favorite. I love such details - they tell so much. By the way: What's the cat's name? Girl or boy? Congratulations on your front-page run!!! All the very best - and stay healthy. Thorsten Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you're talking about the real one, she is "Alix" if you're talking about the toy it's a boy ...and no doubt about the name (as it's also red) Romeo ... in honor of a cat of a dear friend of mine , and of the movie Aristocats! 7 hours ago, Jerry McGlade said: Really nice Thanks for your compliments!

CSW652 Posted April 17, 2020 Love it, very nice building. I do have a question on the grain cars though not being all that familiar with European style trains, I don't see any hatches on the top so how do they fill them? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
