In this video I will show you how I built an awesome metal vehicle kit for model railroads. I am building Showcase Miniatures N scale utility bucket truck as a focal point for my North Texas scene. This N scale bucket truck is a superb metal vehicle kit for model railroads.

A couple of things you might consider are a third figure, a groundman to provide support for the bucket crew, a hand line off the bucket or the pole to help get material from the ground to the work area. Also a pickup truck for additional supplies and a crew Forman.

My 105vis fairly new. My oldest brush is a Badger 120 syphon feed which I loved, but I really wanted the gravity feed. The 105 is a great tool. Love it so far.
