The Busch 1005 is an HO scale (1:87) building kit for a 1950s-style ESSO filling station. Thanks to architecture that was modern for its day, the finished model suits layouts from Epoch III right through to Epoch V, and the two-part station building can be arranged back-to-back or side by side and used as a cashier's office, workshop, flower shop or similar.

Item 1005 includes fuel pumps, prototypical signage and interior fittings for a complete, convincing forecourt scene. The prototype was designed in the early 1950s by Dutch architect W. Dudok and, in various forms, served both larger motorway stations and smaller urban filling stations, its still-modern look influencing gas-station design well into the 1960s and 1970s.
