Nice job on painting the station. Your 3D print work is impressive. I agree that Kato freight set does suggest a maintenance of way train. I will have to look for that Fleischman crane for mine. Did you ever find a prototype for that combination "Brake Van"/ gondola that comes in the Kato set? Cheers.
I haven't tried 3D printing yet, tempting though it is, but could you find a clear plastic filament so you could paint the vehicles leaving the windows 'clearl'?
Excellent work on the station and garage. Im not that good with with computers but can you shrink down any photo? For example if you took a phot or found a photo of a shop interior could you get it to n scale? Plan then would be to mount it on a curved card to give perception of depth inside the building that could be enhanced by a simple LED. Thoughts? thanks Stu
Absolutely, same technique. Quality is dependant on the photo and the printer, but it's do-able! You'll lose a lot of detail shrinking down to 1/148 or 1/160 BUT it will be enough to suggest an interior. 👍
Fantastic job and I really enjoy your easy going approach and narration. I’m very new to the hobby although I did have an HO kit as a child.
Awesome, thank you!

It's the 'Tar-Key' tank wagon, not 'Tak-eye'. Also the white car is a WaMu80000.
