RMweb Premium Dava Posted February 3, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 3, 2016 I'd look at 1/48 & 1/35 scale military model accessories from Tamiya, Italaeri, Airfix etc to find fuel pumps etc., then you can use plastic drinks straws which will bend with gentle heat for curves. Or you can solder brass! Dava Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

John R Smith Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 At Totnes where we had a high loading dock for the milk tanks, there was no pipe work between there and the dairy. They put the milk into a road tank lorry, which ran over to the dock and discharged into the rail tanks. So that is an option if you don't want to model pipe work. Otherwise I suggest you Google "Torrington Station" for images and check out the arrangements there. John Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
