The N Scale Walthers Cornerstone Central Gas and Supply kit is an excellent addition to any 1960s and later model train layout. Propane distribution facilities are widespread across the country, getting bulk shipments by rail and truck. Propane, easily converted into a liquid, is stored in insulated, cylindrical tanks. It's commonly used for home and industrial heating and as fuel for taxis, trucks, and buses. This easy - to - build plastic kit resembles dealerships everywhere. Similar storage and handling facilities can be found near railroad shops, grain elevators, and various industries. You can even model anhydrous ammonia storage by simply shortening the two vent pipes. Shipments arrive in LPG gas tank cars, and similar cars handle anhydrous ammonia fertilizer. The kit comes with an office, two detailed propane tanks, pump houses, smaller tanks and bottles like those at rural homes, and colorful decals for several businesses. It's a great add - on for grain facilities and other rail - served industries. Office size: 2 - 3/8 x 1 - 7/8' (6 x 4.7cm). Each tank: 5 x 3/4' (12.7 x 1.9cm). Loading Shed: 7/8 x 7/8' (2.2 x 2.2cm). Platform: 5/8 x 1/2' (1.5 x 1.27cm). Kit size: 6 - 5/8 x 4 - 7/8' (16.5 x 12cm).

Using this Walthers Central Gas and Supply kit is a breeze. First, unpack all the parts carefully. Start by assembling the office, following the instructions step - by - step. Then, put together the two propane tanks and connect the pump houses and piping. Attach the smaller tanks and bottles around the area as shown in the guide. Add the colorful decals to make it look more realistic. Place it on your model train layout near grain facilities or other rail - served industries. When handling the parts, be gentle to avoid any breakage. Keep the small parts away from children to prevent choking hazards. To maintain the kit, clean it gently with a soft, dry cloth every once in a while. If there are any loose parts, you can use a small amount of appropriate glue to reattach them. Store the kit in a cool, dry place when not in use to keep it in good condition.
