The tank car unloading dock got a fence. I did not want to fight a second time with the Walthers fence and I did not have the guts to try Kurt's well documented fence. I tried the easy way and bought the fence from Micron Art. It is really easy to build and give good results for the not so gifted craftsman. I glued needles to the posts for easy installation. However, you have to pay a steep price...

Hmmm - googling for Micron Art fence, I find this one ? http://www.micronart.com/93405_HOchainlink.html

$31 - a bit of money, but they sure look good. Thanks for the tip about Micron Art - they also have some other stuff - like some very elaborate gates and some 1910 and 20s cars, and some baggage cars.

The buildings an the bridge in front of the door are almost completed. The front building got some fantasy tanks and piping to look more interesting. The truck sits on a light gray painted stick in the ground.

That's a good idea - pretty hard to see against the concrete in the shade under the car, even when you know it is there, and it is a good idea to prevent the car from becoming a flying missile when you open your gate :-)

How did you fasten down the buildings ?
