If anyone us interested the drag line is a kitbash / scratch build. I cant find one in HO scale.

They're out there - just expen$ive!

(I also saw other dragline models on that site, but I think they're too modern for your era.)

any updates on this yet?

Give me a chance, I have done some more on it but no photos yet. One thing is I took UP2CSX suggestion I think he is correct. I have done it in a small area and I like it. I will try to post some pics tomorrow.

There's not much new action here to show.

I am thinking about adding a couple conveyors here from the high level crossing the road to the rail

If I do I would have to make a way for the trucks to access them. Possibly make them mobile in some way. I am open for suggestions.

The last update is about it. I have a little touch up work to do. I have some ideas, but probably won't try for a while.
