Description

A stop on the high street

Few buildings make a toy town feel as believable as a petrol station. With 212 pieces this model is mid-sized, small enough to leave room on a baseplate for a road and neighbours. It gives your layout a place where vehicles can pull in, and with it a reason to build little traffic scenes, so that the cars in your collection finally have somewhere to go and something to stop for. A simple building can hold a surprising amount of play value.

Strong colours, clean surfaces

Red, blue, yellow and black define the set. These are the bold primary colours of the late seventies, with black adding contrast and detail. The parts list on this page names all 41 unique elements, a decent range for a petrol station, since the canopy, the pumps and the main building each call for different shapes. If you own an old copy, the list is also a quick way to check whether everything is still there. It also lets you trace the canopy and pumps piece by piece.

Build it, then change it

With no minifigures in the box, building comes first. You can follow the instructions exactly or adapt the design to taste, perhaps with a longer canopy, a second row of pumps or a workshop bay on the side. The pieces are standard shapes, so the model combines easily with other sets from the same period. Figures and vehicles of your own can add the life that the instructions leave out. You could add a car wash or a small kiosk next door.

A stock of parts for new ideas

If you own the pieces, the “What can I build?” tool on this page shows which other models they could make. That helps most when the original has long been taken apart and the bricks sit in a mixed box. The 1978 petrol station then becomes a starting point for new ideas, where you use the colours you already have and only add what your project really still needs. That saves money and puts the box to use again.
