Hi Gene..... Don't know much about the water tank, but the Plasticville switch tower is easily improved to a scale-like appearance by cutting off the 3/4" base, replacing the plastic hand railings with wire, adding straight pin heads for doorknobs, painting/weathering, cutting windows in the door panels, adding window "glass", and installing some interior details/figures which are easily seen through the large windows. Easy to do and nice looking when finished. Sure cheap when compared to the laser-cut wood kits. The Plasticville signal bridges are also modifiable to a scale-like appearance. But that is another story for the future. Cheers...Ed L. To REPLY to the list, use REPLY ALL; to reply to the sender, use REPLY.
