[quote user="csmith9474"][quote user="Iceman_c27"][quote user="jrbernier"] <p> Are you talkingabout refueling/service facilities in a yard engine terminal? Or the mainline refueling 'pad' systems like used on the UP and BNSF?</p><p> There are a lot of the former type facilities available in HO model form. The mainline fuel pads will have to be custom fabricated using lot's of the parts in the engine terminal facilities. These facilities have multiple fuel/sand recepticles on each track to speed up sevicing......</p><p>Jim</p><p>[/quote]</p><p>Hi JIm,</p><p>To be honest, I don't even know the difference on the two types you mentioned...haven't seen much of either at all...the one I want to do is what seems a roll of pumps and lights alone-side the entry to an yard. I am starting to realise that I will have to custom fabricate that or kit bash for N scale.</p><p>[/quote]</p><p>Did you see the facility in the pics from the link I provided above? It sounds like that is very close to what you are looking for. If you go to the last page of the album in the link, there are several more photos which are a little closer and give some more detail.</p><p>[/quote]</p><p>Yes I did thanks! It's very similar to what I want but the piping seems hard fo N scale...so I might just do the ones that just have the pumps...sort of like the ones in gas stations but without the counter if that mnakes sense...</p>
