Here is one of the MDC "floors", with the wood deck in place: The gaps will be filled with new planks. The waterbase contact cement, expanded the 1/32" thick scribed sheet. When it dried out, it "unexpanded", leaving the gaps.......live and learn.
And this is the MDC "Old Time Tank Car" body, that will become the water tank:
Rooting around in the "junk box", I found the remains of two "Chattanooga Choo Choo" tenders, I'll use the ends of these for the fuel oil tank.

We always learn far more from our own mistakes, than we will ever learn from another's advice.
The greatest place to live life, is on the sharp leading edge of a learning curve.
Lead me not into temptation.....I can find it myself!
