Grant,
Thanks once again for your expertise!  As always, your answer has sparked
another question in my mind.  On Google maps, if I follow Puritan road to
the left (West) a quarter mile I get to the big sewage treatment plant.
However, if I follow Cypress Lane under the bridge and South for just a
bit, I see what appears to be another, small sewage treatment plant.  Is
this one still in use, or was it replaced by the larger facility further
West?  Don't know that I have ever seen anyone describe modeling  such a
plant.  Will you be doing this on your layout?
