Here is an update on my first serious scratch buildt switch tower out of bass wood. So far I think I have made over 300 parts easy. Its starting to look like a switch tower now. Just framed out the stairs which took about 7 hrs. This isn't any one particular building. Its. Combination of many and my own twist thrown in but somewhat resembles the ones in the Chicago yard. I will update as progress is made. There are 18 hand made switchs and the windows are from a box car packaging. The shades are card stock. It will be lit up with LEDa and have a removable roof. A work table and some other details and a hardwood floor now that I replaced my printer today. Now I wish I had a permanent layout to display it on.

Update starting to come together
