Title: who makes the train wash building?
Post by: weave on July 14, 2013, 08:21:21 AM
Hi all,

Sorry to bother you but can't remember who makes the train wash building that I've seen on a few layouts here. Think it's Peco but can't seem to find.

Thanks for your help and time, weave

The Farish Code 42-095.

Not being clever,  I do have the 2013 catalogue right by me!

Thanks guys but that's not it. It's got a roof on it.

Cheers weave

No but thanks,

Couldn't remember where I saw it but think it's the one on Shaun Harvey's George ST. (RIP)

Thanks everyone,

Found it. (I think) It's Scenecraft 42-002. Not really a roof on it but will do.

Sure there was one with a proper roof,

Cheers weave

Thanks again guys.

Posted ages ago about this but am going to make a spanish/french talgo gauge changing thing. Can't get decent pictures but have seen it on youtube.

Looks like this and thought the wash thing could be adapted.

Ta for the help.

ps mean't to say it's set in the 80's/90's so not the modern gauge changing things.

I've also seen it on Youtube there are a couple , one in Spanish with animation
of the mechanism, very impressive. The building itself is fairly nondrescript.
Wonder if anyone has modelled the gauge changing, that would be even more
impressive.

Why not make a roof (or even a whole washer) - it shouldn't be that difficult? Just some corrugated plastic and a frame from 'I' beam Evergreen/Plastruct strip.
