Title: Our first HO scale Kit from Crescent Creek Models
Post by: Shakey Jake on July 05, 2021, 02:21:44 PM
Well folks,  This announcement might be new to you, but I am finally getting around to posting on this site.  I designed this kit based on an old Shorpy photo of a Conoco Gas Station.  We have included a variety of white metal castings and unique 3D printed parts.  Charlie Getz did a build and review in The Narrow Gauge Gazette.  I had a chance to present George Sellios with one of our kits at his latest open house.  He might even put it on his railroad somewhere.  We shall see!

So Tom, what do your gas stations charge for gas?  Also weren't (back n steam/diesel transition days) stations still referred to as service stations (i.e. they actually serviced a vehicle) unlike today's real gas stations that no one but you actually pump?  It's all so confusing how this country (i.e. this hobby) has become. ???

                                                                                                                                                                                            KP-out...  P.S. Jake, that's a cool station model for sure.  I'm sure Tom will need another station model soon (after all, his vehicles still drink gas like hippo's). :o
