Description

Industry beside the track

A refinery belongs in a railway landscape, since tanks, loading points and train traffic go hand in hand. The set is aimed at anyone who wants to fill a layout with industry rather than just stations and houses. At 340 pieces it is a modest-sized building and tank set that stands comfortably beside rails and trains and brings a layout to life with activity, without demanding much space on the table. If you already own rails and wagons, your trains suddenly have a new destination.

Colours for tanks and plant

Red, white, light grey and yellow shape the colour mix. White and light grey suit tanks, pipes and sheds, while red and yellow suit warning markings, vehicles and roof elements. That makes the plant look technical and friendly at once. The palette combines well with other train sets from the same era, because the tones are clearly separated. The parts list on this page gives you a precise breakdown by colour. That helps if you want to sort the bricks before building.

Three figures bring the site to life

The three minifigures turn the structure into a small scene: workers keeping the site running, or railway staff loading tank wagons. With 43 distinct part types the set is varied enough for detail on tanks and buildings, yet stays easy to survey. If you want to recreate or complete a late-seventies railway layout, you can simply check here which pieces are still missing. That saves you hunting for individual elements and shows quickly whether an addition is worth it.

Check, add, keep building

This page carries the complete parts list, so you can compare it with your own stock. The “What can I build?” tool shows which other sets can be assembled from the bricks you already have. The basic shapes are plain and can be reused in many ways, for warehouses, petrol stations or factory buildings that have nothing to do with a refinery but suit the same railway theme. Accessories for small stations can also be developed from the same bricks.
