A couple months ago I found the Woodland Scenics Gas Station at a swap meet for the princely sum of 3$ It was missing the gas pumps but they were going to be the wrong type for me anyhow.

I've built a number of the Woodland Scenics cast metal kits before so I knew what I was getting into before. I spent about an hour cleaning up the castings with a set of files before spraying the primer onto them:

I used a white primer on the walls since that was going to be their primary color anyhow, and gray on everything else.

Then I used some epoxy and glued the four walls together. I figure it will make it a bit easier to paint them after this assembly. After the glue has fully set up I can continue.
