    hi all,
    thought i share the progress of todays scratchbuild project
    the small diesel refueling station.

    building is left overs from walthers modulars
    and the big tank is a old lifelike tankcar
    the small day tank is a 1/48 scale bomb
    and the pump is just some plastic parts
    pipes are plastic and small tig welding rod

    not done yet still have to paint and weather

    comments, tips, hints are very welcome

    Very nice. Good imagineering and kitbash. I am sure you would like to keep it, so maybe you can "plant" it so it will be usable again after this layout.

    Very nice painting and weathering! (I especially like the Airbus painted for the RAF in the background of photo #2.)

    Real nice, the weathering looks good.

    Next, you will need to do some weathering on your switcher.

    By the way, who makes that CN switcher? Is that DC, or DCC? I have been looking for 1. But haven't had any luck.
