| This was a quick rehab taking me about 30 minutes from start to finish and a great improvement from the original look. |
 |
| I forgot to take a photo before I began this project. I sprayed a group of small structures with a light coat of Camo Coat brown. Note it all did not get covered but it all will work out well. There was a sticker sign that I forgot to remove before painting that shows the original colouring. |
 |
| PanPastel green is added to walls, doors and window. Some new signs are applied. rust to lube pumps and PanPastel gray to the wooden deck. |
 |
| The roof was coated with some Bragdon soot, and some acrylic paints on seams and patches. |
This structure was sold as part of the Tyco Trackside Maintenance Accessories kit no 7775. I have this kit and built it as a kid. I've still got most of the pieces in my stash. The thing I loved so much about it was how dilapidated all of the pieces were and the really neat details. I loved the backwoods feel of the parts. Whoever designed it really had fun with it, and it is a neat addition to the layout back then. I love the way you detailed your model - I may have to dig mine up and re-do it!! Here is a link to an eBay auction for one. If it doesn't work, just search up the kit name listed above. https://www.ebay.com/p/TYCO-Trackside-Maintenance-Accessories-HO-Scale-Kit-7775/668193977
