Layout progress, July 2008

The lower level, three rail track, and a home made Marx oil terminal. The platform and ramp are both cardboard, covered with brick paper which is similar to the Marx freight depot. The tanks are from damaged freight cars, although one lacks end and top caps. I should use a complete tank from a duplicate car, but don't like to mutilate undamaged cars!

The two trucks are American Highway Legends, by Hartoy, and the fork lift truck is Dinky, as is the yellow Coles mobile crane in the background. The Hartoy trucks are 1/64th, which is a little small, but they blend in well.
