Kirk Kazienko's Steel Mill

Just wanted to submit a few photos of my scratch built N Scale B.O.F.   The Wheeling-Pittsburgh Steel facility in Mingo Junction, Ohio, is the prototype.   I've already built the 80 inch facility and rolling mill (kit bashed six Walthers Rolling Mills), bridge crane (Walthers scaled down), blast furnace (Walthers with additional detailing), and now my centerpiece.   I believe one of your backdrops actually shows the real BOF from the West Virginia side of the Ohio River.   Growing up in the Northern Panhandle of West Virginia, I got to see this beauty almost every day.   The recent addition of an EAF has given me even more to do!
