MILW car barge slip in Seattle

After many years of looking like this:


The Milwaukee Road car float slip finally received its sheet piling today. Here are a few progress shots:




The sheet pile is an Evergreen Styrene product painted with a random blend of acrylic rust and graphite colors, and glued on to the plywood base with Aileen's super tacky glue. My plan is to cut some sheets of 1/8" clear acrylic to make a block of water for the car barge to rest on, representing the water level. Stay tuned.
