Locomotive depot
The Rosenbahn Locomotive depot:
The locomotive depot at the Rosenbahn contains all the necessary elements for the steam locomotives. Due to the limited space it has become quite full, but it doesn’t affect the overall appearance negative. The only thing missing is a slag pit due to the limited space.
At this Loc depot we find a turntable connected (picture 1 up till 3) to a Locomotives shed (picture 4), a sand bunker with sand store (picture 5), a small coal storage with crane (picture 4), a watercrane with swing arm (picture 11), a compressor house, a sawmill (picture 6, 12, 13 and 16), followed by a loading platform with a single track and surrounded by a crane, a large coal bunker surrounded by a large crane which stands above two tracks (picture 9 up till 11). This large coal bunker with crane is from manufacturer Kibri (item number 39420, picture 8). Weathering took place with Acrylic paint to remove the plastic look of the parts. At two sides a complete backdrop is painted with acrylic paint (pictures 14, 15 and 17). At all buildings LED illumination is added to have a great night view (pictures 19 and 20). The front view gets a wooden edging painted in dark grey as a nice finish (picture 16). Next job is to ballast with small stones in different natural colors the rail track and give it a finish with some rust color by using the airbrush.
Bit by bit the complete scenery will be completed.
