    Hello

    I am presently building a model of the Water tank that was at tower 55 at Frt Worth . This was a flat roof with round bottom. The only thing have to use for and O scale model in 1/48.

    The only thing I have presently is the painting By John Winfield.
    and Actual RR drawing would be great or some photo’s.

    Any help would be appreciated. pay for prints.

    Thanks

    Sorry Bill, can’t help you with images. Would enjoy following your construction. Are you planning to do this tank in brass?

    Gregg yes I am doing it .020 sheet stock brass started wile a 75000 gal tack from PSCthen I started cutting the thing in pieces and then building new parts. Then putting back together. It has 4 courses the PSC has 3 . It will look nice when done, I am about 80% done with the fabrication.

    Yet I am nuts love to cut things up. Remember the 1000.00 Wasatch U P car I made the one and only St.LBM RPO car.
