I just finished building mine. Had it for a few years. There is one part (#31 ?) that is included but not shown or described in the instructions. It fits on top of parts 3,4,5. And #28 fits ABOVE the ribs on parts 3,4,5.
And on the conveyor, I painted the belt area black, and then ran a bead of white glue down the center and sprinkled WS black cinder ballast onto the wet glue.
Walther’s kit’s,well some of them have pretty weird instructions and down right misleading instructions. Take the blast furnace for example ,some of the parts don’t line up properly.Sometimes ,most of the kit’s I’ve put together,I just toss the instructions in the trash. I’ve been build kits and scratch building structures,for 25 years, and have no need for their instructions. But then again,once in a while we all need instructions,the blast furnace,I used them .
