Nice layout Steve.  I like the modular plinths you can move around as needed.  Video at around 5m40s shows the brickwork even getting a little soot patina. Very realistic.  Boiler looks great.

Thanks!
Hello Scott i have built a few of these steam plants that i can mix and match...the brickwork takes a bit of time to do but i think its worth the effort.
Sometimes i do add a touch of weathering using a soft leaded pencil rubbed in with my fingers to shape various soot trails or other stains and drips as you can see on this plant.
The boiler was a surprise i would have bet money that it would have failed my pressure test...Steve
