Locate Your Industry in Kingston!

The above sign was installed at Kingston's Outer Station circa 1958. It was parallel to Montreal Street and readily visible from passing trains on CN's Kingston Sub. The implication was clear - Locate Your Industry Here! Similar signs were in Brockville and Belleville, either sponsored by local business interests or CN itself. This was era before the internet, so seeing was believing in the world of business!

Using the above image, I created an HO scale version using Paint software, built a billboard with simulated lighting and located it across from my Outer Station. The main challenge being that if I had located it facing the track, the lettering would not be visible. So, my version is visible from the layout aisle, as well as still being visible to HO scale passengers.
