The Walthers Cornerstone HO Scale Diesel Fueling Facility is a classic North - American small servicing area model. Inspired by 1940s prototypes when railroads switched from steam to diesel, these facilities were first near roundhouses and are still seen at loco - servicing terminals and inspection points today. This authentic kit comes with everything to build a two - track fueling facility, including a storage tank, fuel crane, water crane, pump house, and top unloading rack. For modern modelers, it also has environmental track 'pans' to catch spills. The plastic parts are molded in suitable colors, so no painting is needed. The easy - to - follow illustrated instructions make assembly a breeze for beginners and experienced modelers alike. Use it alongside other railroad buildings on your layout. Features include a storage tank with a concrete retention berm, a two - track diesel fueling setup, fuel cranes, a pump house, track pans for modern scenes, and an easy - to - build plastic kit. Dimensions: Storage Tank: 5 x 2 - 3/4' (12.5 x 6.8cm), Platform: 11 x 7' (27.5 x 17.5cm), Unloading Rack: 1/2 x 3/4 x 2 - 7/8' (1.2 x 1.8 x 7.1cm).

Using this Walthers HO Scale Diesel Fueling Facility is super easy. First, read through the illustrated instructions carefully. Then, start assembling the plastic parts one by one. You don't need to paint the parts as they are already in the right colors. When placing the facility on your railroad layout, put it near other railroad buildings for a more realistic look. As for maintenance, keep it away from dust and direct sunlight. If it gets dirty, you can use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe it. Make sure to handle the small parts like the fuel cranes and water cranes with care to avoid breakage. And that's it - enjoy creating your own amazing railroad scene with this great model!
