HO scale narrow gauge tank car with a white tank wearing a blue polar bear logo, the word ZEROLENE in large red/blue print, and below in smaller blue text is the phrase, "The Standard Oil for Motor Cars".
Close to being done. So far I have dodged the many pitfalls of this old kit, including irreplaceable fragile decals. Let's see if I can avoid kismet to the end. #ZeroleneBuild #HOScale #ModelRailroad #ModelRailway

HO scale tank car with the Red Crown Gasoline logo applied.
HO scale tank car with a polar bear logo, the letters ZE, and the words The Standard added to the left end of one side.
Yet another moment of truth: are the decals robust enough to survive application? So far, so good. #ZeroleneBuild #HOScale #ModelRailroad #ModelRailway

The front edge of the scales with aluminum foil wrapped around the edge and painted (mostly - some touch up is required) grey
#hobbyStreak 152. Installed a long piece of flashing on the front edge of the scales. #modelRailway #modelRailroad
HO scale tank car resin casting with blue liquid mask applied around the bottom of the tank.
Tank car casting with fresh coat of box car red around the masked off support portion. The casting is laying next to the bottle of Ammo liquid mask used, and next to the flat car that will carry the tank.
Liquid mask and painting the tank support. Multiple rounds of handpainting the structure box car red. Each day, we are half way closer to finishing this project. Fortunately, Weierstrass assures us that this sequence converges to a finite value. #ZeroleneBuild #HOScale #ModelRailroad #ModelRailway
White HO scale tank with dome highlights in flat aluminum.
Step 1 in creating a coupler cut bar with a curved portion to make room for the brakestaff: bend a square U.
Step 2 in creating a coupler cut bar with a curved portion to make room for the brakestaff: use a small cylinder to curve the portion in the middle of the U. Here, I used a tiny paintbrush handle.
HO scale flat car showing the installed curved coupler cut bar. Note how the bend we created is centered on the brakestaff.
A to-do list of various smaller details remains. The dome on the white tank appears to have darker highlights on it (I went with Tamiya XF-16 flat aluminum; see the picture at the start of the thread). And, bending coupler cut bars. #ZeroleneBuild #HOScale #ModelRailroad #ModelRailway

Crank Up The SOUND for this rollby... Shot with my Helmet Cam. This captures all the rumble and sounds of a real railroad on my Model Railroad. No Audio Dubbing. Its as real sounding as it gets for this layout. - Enjoy 😉

HO scale tank car resin casting in a paintbooth being painted Mr. Color flat white with Mr. Color leveling thinner.
Tabby cat at food bowl with eyes covered by a black bar. He is the prime suspect in a tank car ruination plot.
Screenshot of a popular old dril tweet where he says, "and another thing: im not mad. please dont put in the newspaper that i got mad."
Beautiful even white finish then I notice two separate strands of suspected cat fur, which ruins the finish when I scrape off paint removing it. The suspect is in custody. #ZeroleneBuild #HOScale #ModelRailroad #ModelRailway
The scales with tar-papered (painted masking tape on styrene) roof over the scale pit to either side of the rails. The middle wasn’t papered on this particular scale.
#hobbyStreak 150. Added the roof for the scales. #modelRailway #modelRailroad
I forgot to share this, but, shortly after Artemis II's launch, I ran my "Space Freight Special" which carries a Mercury-Redstone (MR-3, Alan Shepard's) and a Gemini-Titan (GT-5, Ed White's)
My model X-15 is a little too wide and the Apollo-Saturn 1B is way too big

The first runby on the updated layout! I have been busy again with irl stuff & trying to finish the layout in the process. as you can see it's definitely not finished yet but I'm hopeful by summer to be starting on adding buildings and more cools things to layout!

One of the gauntlet switches with the PC board ties painted to match the adjacent wooden ties to the best of my ability.
#hobbyStreak 149. It’s all cosmetic from here until the scale track is installed next week. Painted the PC board ties. #modelRailway #modelRailroad

The tank needed 4 more tiny holes for a step, installed later. It was then ready for painting. The final color being predominantly white, I primed with Mr. Surfacer 1500 White & Mr. Color leveling thinner in many thin layers over 2 days. #ZeroleneBuild #HOScale #ModelRailroad #ModelRailway
HO scale resin tank car casting with half of the handrails installed.
HO scale resin tank car casting with all of the handrails installed.
Side view, HO scale resin tank car casting with handrails installed.
HO scale resin tank car casting being given a bath in 91 percent isopropyl alcohol (IPA) to thoroughly clean the surface.
Installation was a lot of careful effort. The rings ended up being just a tiny bit oversize, but I think it is better than the irregular hand-rolled stanchions I have seen in the past. After installation, 2 thorough cleanings: dishsoap then IPA. #ZeroleneBuild #HOScale #ModelRailroad #ModelRailway
A package of A-line D-1074, a collection of tiny gray metal rods with eyelets at the end. One example of a clipped and prepared stanchion is shown for illustrative purposes.
First, we need to prepare the stanchions by clipping and then molding the rod, which is flattened metal, into a round peg. Then, to determine the drill bit size needed and drill out the resin tank casting. #ZeroleneBuild #HOScale #ModelRailroad #ModelRailway
Model building has nothing but moments of truth. Let's see if I can pull off the handrail installation. Using Arrow Hobby stanchions intended for diesel handrails: will this work well enough? ppw-aline.com/products/d11... #ZeroleneBuild #HOScale #ModelRailroad #ModelRailway
