Yes, I understand the pen location, it's the scale location relative to the
pen that I can't see in photos or find described in text.

Stock yards were built with the layout of the track. Page 20 and 22 of
BB#25 show this and the photos in the rest of the bulletin show how layouts
varied. As a space saver put it right on the edge of the layout so you do
not need all the pens. I built one on a layout in Dallas and just had the
unloading chute with a covered pen on each side which were only about 2
inches deep as a back ground model.
Build it your way and have fun. Like letting the operator stand in the
middle of the pen

Subject: [CBQ] Stock Scale Layout
Group,
I'm building a standard stock pen and 8x14 ft. stock scale from drawings in
BB#25. I'm not sure how to arrange the scale relative to the pens. I'm
guessing the 10 ft. angled fence segment at the left rear of the standard
pen drawing is used for unloading, with a truck placed between the extension
and the open gate. I'd appreciate any information on yard and scale layout
for small stock yards with 2-4 pens and 8x14 ft. scales.
