Boiler house

After seeing Garry Lance's boiler house it inspired me to start back to work on mine. I started out going to use part of the Walther's Coke Retort kit be decided to build my own addition. Here are some before and after pictures. Some of the Detail parts are from Garry Lance. The piping is wooden dowel rods and brass fittings.




Slab carriers

Slab carriers were built from Tyco/Mantua culvert flat cars. Added side post and ends. Kadee couplers was body mounted and trucks and wheels were changed out. 



Slag Haulers

These wheeled slag haulers are from Garry Lance. They are cast resin and are nicely detailed. Additional detail parts added is a strobe light and hydronic hoses which were added only to the red hauler. Yellow hauler will get hoses added at a later dated.
