Names for Steel mill

[siderod]

Hey guys,

I have a small steel place on my layout...as in VERY VERY small...just 1 track into it for loading. Uhhh, basically, what i need is a name for it.

I was thinking something interesting, unique yet not unrealistic or abnormal. It has "Oceanic" on the sign as it is, and in St John NB where i got it (guy gave it to me) there is a steel plant called "Ocean Steel"...i was thinking of that, but i don't know. I was also debating "Steele Steel" but again, i dunno.

So throw me some ideas.

Thanks!

As small as it sounds, you might want to consider a steel fabricator rather than a plant, somewhere that specializes in cyclones, turbines, silos, ductwork and such. That might then help in naming it and justify the small loads.

How about Andrews Steel Fabricators or Andrews Fabricating. Just some thoughts.

Since it already has 'Oceanic'

how about:

"Oceanic Fabrication"
Ducting for Cruise Ships

Remington Steel.

Since its a small plant how about having a little fun and calling it Micro Steel? Or maybe Micron Steel? You could change the spelling to be less obvious..Mykron Steel for example.

So far, i like that idea the most.

Might end up throwing a few names together. "Mykron Oceanic Fabricating" or something like that. Good ideas guys, keep 'em comming!

The big local steel industry here is called IPSCO. I like that name, IPSCO.
I think it stands for either Interprovincial Pipe & Steel Company or Inter Provincial Steel Company.

Just thought I'd throw that out there.
