What building is this?

The vertical sliding door looks a little strange to me.  How would this be opened?  Maybe there'd be some sort of counterbalance weight so it would be easy for someone to lift and would stay open?

Dave,
you guessed right. The only problem with the door is I forgot to install the counterweight. My bad. Its on the list update list to fix. Good catch. It's on the original model, but somehow was overlooked on this one. I'll correct it. Thanks for your comment. My bad.

Way to go Frank.....Great job.  8)


Thanks Greg,


Need to get my shoulder fixed before I start the next building. Its hell to grow old. I guess I spent too much time with the scenery using my left arm. Glad you like the build.

Beautiful work, Frank.  I do love the pigeons!

Jeff,


Thank you for your kind words and for your pigeons. They really add something to the building. I need to add a little pigment near the birds to illustrate " what the pigeons add to the building"! Thanks again for the birds.

What a beauty, wish there was one in N-scale.

looks awesome Frank, super nice job! Are you going to fill the loading docs with "stuff" a la George Sellios? With all that dock space, I think about $200.00 worth of castings should just about do it!

Bob,

I'll be the one adding 99% of the casting to the two structures. 8) 8) 8)

It wouldn't be a Erieman build without the bird s**t.

Frank,
           Great looking structure my friend! Enjoyed watching you put your fingerprints all over ACL's paybacks.  Equally will be watching where, how & why the rent a cop installs on his layout. :)  Thanks for sharing!  Thanx Thom... P.S.  How will you send to Tom?(fly, mail, drive, ups, drone)???

Jan,


I'd send you drawings of the two buildings, but, and this is a big but, there is not enough detail for you to build anything from. Sorry about that. I use the existing model as a reference. Sorry about that. Glad you enjoy the build. Maybe some day I'll make a drawing, or not.

Bob,


As Tom says, he is going to fill the building(s) with castings. I think he is a little light on the cost of them. When i started my first build, I think I had almost $200 in crates and that was quite a while ago. These building can really suck up details. I look forward to seeing what Tome does with them once he gets them.
