Title: Split station
Post by: Graffen on September 18, 2019, 01:01:03 PM
Hi all!
:)
I'm building on my layout again after the summer months.
The town of Holy cross on my HOn3 layout is slowly taking shape.
But, I realised that the station took up too much real estate.
I therefore decided to move it to the aisle side of the rails.

The space was a bit narrow though. So, I decided to cut the building in half lengthwise.  :o

That makes it possible to see the interior of it and make it a bit of a show point.

The starting point was an Atlas station.
I cut it in half and used the remaining pieces to make the interior walls.
The cut was painted red to highlight it.
What do you think?

Hey Graffen:

Looks great so far. Can't wait to see what you do with the inside.
