I started my new diesel servicing facility today. I got the fuel and steam generator water stations added. I used Brewster, NY as the model so I had to scratch build both. I also had to scratch build the sanding tower. Although I ran out of srink tubing I did manage to finish one side of the structure. I attached the photo below.

Very nice. I have not seen the prototype, but you appear to have executed this one very well.

I can't wait either Trucula. The scratch built suff takes 10 times longer to do. I also have a scratch built inspection pit going at the same time. I'd like to get back to weathering some cars. The cars on this forum are the best I seen any where.

I'm faced with doing something similar in the not-too-distant future, my layout needs a small loco servicing facility.
