Title: The Greenbush Freight Depot (HO Scale)
Post by: engineerkyle on June 27, 2014, 05:14:32 AM
Hi All,

I recently bought a DPM freight depot. Rather than assemble this brick structure right away. I used the walls as a template to cut some board and batten walls. Here are the results.

Greenbush where, please? There's a Greenbush section of Scituate, MA. south of Boston. Same Greenbush? Might need to go take some photos if the structure is still there.

D'oh! Never even thought about using DPM walls as a template. I really dislike working in styrene. With the great laser-cut brick sheets available this might just be the solution. Thanks!

That would be Greenbush MI, north of Alpena on the Sunrise side. And for some reason I said the walls were board and batten, meant clapboard.
