Railway Laser Lines – Laser Cut OO Gauge Gresty Servicing & Refuelling Shed Kit – With No Roof Windows.
NOW WITH CHOICE OF BASE – CODE 100 or BULLHEAD CODE 75
***** The only difference between this kit and RLL650GS kit are the roof windows. If you do not want roof windows and want to save a few pounds, then this is the kit to purchase*****
Gresty Bridge servicing and refuelling depot kit is based on the real shed at Gresty Bridge Depot, Gresty Lane, Crewe which is owned by DRS (Direct Rail Services)
Its unique framework makes it an ideal kit for the modern image modeller as there is NOTHING on the market like this, so Railway Laser Lines decided to make up a laser cut kit for this shed. Officially launched in the 7mm O gauge market last month, we’ve adapted that design and modified it due to the reduction in size and now has easier to fit main side frames and roof structures. The kit is made from MDF and some parts, especially the 8 roof frame supports are EXTREMELY fragile, so it is vitally important that these are handled with care to avoid breakage….please take your time!
The base is made up off a separate base and overlay and if using bullhead code 75 track, there is now an option to choose for this, but will leave a minor gap unless you trim the side chairs. The centre strip allows for the flange gap of the locomotives, but as always, if you are running older stock, check the clearance prior to glueing. This can be sanded if required.
The base even has its own fuel spillage frame integrated into the base and the level of detail here is second to none and once the base is primed, painted and weathered, this should look fantastic.
There are NO fuelling parts with our kit. These can be obtained from the likes of Knightwing and other manufacturers who make a fuelling rig.
