When my grandfathers HO item where passed along to me (what didn't get ruined in my sisters flooded basement) there where only two structures left. They were still sealed in plastic and had no boxes. I found out that it was a Life Like train station (MFR #1347). The problem I am having is that I have NO idea what type of roof is on this model. It's definately NOT shingles, slate, or wood shake. It does have a wood grain texture to it but I am unsure exactly what it is for certain. I posted a pic and i was hoping maybe some of you Gurus here in the HO forum might be able to clue me in. I can't paint it if I don't know what it is. I painted the smaller roof a woody type color but i could be far off. The one pictured is one side of the Platform roof. Maybe you even have this particular item on your own layout and if so I would love to see a pic. If not, I suppose I could scratch shingle it if someone knows the dimensions of an HO shingle.Thank you all for your time. :thumb:
