Hmmm, my 0-6-0 (in real life) burned oil, so mine has an oil tender, no coal. As for the coal, you may want to paint it glossy black. Also, for painting model trains, most modelers use air brushes. These can be found at Home Depot or your hobby shop. I suppose you could brush paint your coal, though it may not turn out as nice as it would with an air brush. <br /> <br />Here's another method you could use for your coal. Many companys sell HO scale coal, real coal crushed in HO size. This stuff look very realistic. It's as simple as putting some glue on your coal, then sprinkling the scale coal on top of it. <br /> <br />Jonathon
