Jim;

Thanks for the information. I checked the site and will probably order a roof tomorrow.

It has a metal roof that is usually black although I have seen other colors light or dark green and the shed color determins the roof color.  Black on brown sheds and Green on white sheds.  It is a common roof and replacements from http://www.portlines.com/ for $6.50 green or $7.00 black.  Since you say your shed is yellow, I'd say the paint is faded white or has been repainted.

American Flyer Water Tower question
Posted by RRCharlie on Thursday, August 9, 2007 11:57 AM

I have a # 752 American Flyer Water Tower with the red and white checkerboard wrap around the top of the tower and the lighted bubble tube. The base is a dark grey and the little house is a light yellow with red trim. The roof is missing. What color was the roof and was it metal or cardboard?

Thanks,
