Reply to "New Union Station Progress Update11/3/2020"

Though my injured thumb is healing but still causing me some restriction, I still made more progress on Union Station. The roof is built. It will be hinged so that it can be tilted back to show off the interior.

The top of the roof is removable for access to electrical circuitry (yet to be installed) for lighting of the main waiting room and ticket booth interior.

The interior is rather close quarters, so, these are the only shots I could get of the train information desk/dispatch board.

The ticket office is complete but did not lend itself well to photos while installed in the building.

The bars on the windows of the ticket office are from a cut section of Model Power O Scale Wrought Iron Fence. When Model Power went out of business, I bought up quite a few sets of the fence. It has many potential uses.0226201723

The next step is to cut to size and install the bent square brass rods to be frames for for the arched windows. This will be followed by a white primer coat of paint to seal the wood grains.

Stay tuned. There is more to come.
