Crank's safety update

Named for a model making friend in Canada (alias Mr Eccentric Crank) another Trainlife denizen who is of an engineering bent, he quickly picked up on the lack of pressure relief valves on my tank farm.  So one upturned HO scale oilcan and a tiny piece cut from a brake part from an old Airfix Rocket kit later we comply with safety regs!

  2. I feel safer knowing that the loft won't explode in the night!
