ONRH&TS Convention Preview Part 1

I opted to preview parts of the layout for convention attendees.  Here's the first of the businesses found on the KLR.

Quaker Oats Company of Canada Limited- The Quaker Oatsplant in Peterborough produces cases of cereal and cake mixes at their facility. Raw materials, including various grains, oils, are transported to the facility by rail. It is quite common to see the yard filled with colorful grain hoppers of different sizes. Finished goods are transported by boxcar or truck.

A Beaver Lumber yard is also present in the town of Pembroke. I think that the old style Thrall all-door box cars were a really interesting design of rolling stock, so I took some modeling license and incorporated a business which could readily use this type of car to transport finished goods.
