    just about completed this small diorama, ( its only 15" x 12" ) its been a learning curve on the "greenery" side, but then that's what its all about ( ? )

    Thank you, not intentional - photo taken off my I phone just before it died !

    The "greenery" experiment goes on and the fist tanker arrives

    The pipe runs are in, but I am still working on the "greenery". My first attempt at a tree didn't go too well, so I "felled" it , and it just so happened to fall onto the damaged wall section ! to be continued....

    I'm still working on the pipe runs but this is the first of two discharge points.. and of course the rest of the greenery bottom right.

    I was looking at a drone type shot, but there are still too many gaps ! I'll look at this when complete...

    The build continues on two fronts whilst I sort out the pipe runs: The road / siding entrance The petrol depot takes shape. Built off site this is its first planting! A view from inside And a view looking across the complex

    There is a good account of Pre War Petrol Depots by John Cockcroft in MRJ No. 60 , 1993. The following is a very edited version that I made for my own area of interest:

    I am wanting to put some Midland type tablet racks onto a D1659 20Ton Goods Brake van kit: Do they go on the same end, or on diagonally opposite ends ? Any advice please, thank you. Russ M

    Is there a timetable for the shuttle bus from the station to the venue ? Or a service bus ( No. 55 I've read somewhere ). But then again its within waking distance weather permitting !

    something like this : Pond Quarry on part of the Brookes Ltd system at Lightcliffe

    Another tank wagon conversion. This time from a Bachmann 14 ton tanker and idea from "Petroleum Rail Tank Wagons of Britain" by R.Tourret I'm happy with the main body this time round ( lettering and weathering ), but still need to work more on the underframe.

    with a certain holiday period only weeks away you could ask SWMBO to treat you to this from JS Models:

    What started out as an Airfix /GMR Shell tanker wagon, a few bits from the scrap box, individually applied letters from a sheet of Model Master transfers and weathered to hide all the mistakes ! Idea taken from the photo on the cover of Bill Hudson's Private Owner Wagons , The Oakwood Press. The cruel close up shows a few blemishes, not least the still plastic finish to the underframe, the tank not quite sitting flush, and more importantly the not so straight lettering !

    having read through / downloaded several painting and weather guides ie : AK Interactive's How to Use product guides, Life Colour's How to Use.., and AV Vallejo's Product Guide Step by Step (no doubt others are available) I tried some of the techniques on my take of a GN Creosote tank wagon - ( it was originally an Airfix/GMR 20 ton Shell Tank wagon) Weathering might not be ever-bodies cup of tea but rule 1 applies !
