Train Station Kitbash (N Scale)

...& also some little window units for the station...

Well, this might seem a little crazy for a train station, but since this is freelance, & I'm just kinda "imagineering" this whole thing, on a whim, I decided to put concrete planters on the plaza area, & give it a little greenery. I also added some railing around the edges.

I also used styrene to raise the base 2 1/2 scale ft. to the same height as the boarding platforms...I covered the bare styrene with H&R brick sheet & some styrene strip.

I haven't gotten a lot done on this one in the last couple of months, but here is an update...

I made some steps for the arched doorway, & added some details, & gravel, to the roof...

I've also begun to "people" the place up a little bit ...

Wow Charlie, it just looks awesome. What a great model. I love all the details like the planters and the LPBs
You are very talented my friend

Well, it's been over a month since I posted an update on this...I've been neglecting thyis project in favor of other things lately, but an still making tiny steps forward...
Here's a couple of pics to show how the diorama is shaping up...the tracs are in, but no ballast, or bumpers yet...& details are begining to appear on the platforms...

 

[Drew1125]

I've also made a paved area alongside the station...

 

[Matthyro]

Lookin' good Charlie. The LPB lounging on the platform bench looks like he is waiting for something to do like ballasting your track

Charlie: Thats lookin real nice. I see the L & N lurking in the background. Reminds me of Louisville's Union Station.
