This is as far as I will go with this station, as I need to re-draw things a bit to make them less to scale and more robust/workable.

Man, you've got it bad, don't you? That's an awesome little thing!

So, when are you going to start selling Amercian T?

Wow. I'm duly impressed. Floored really...

I'm curious to see how those of us without lasers will fare! (read: laser envy)

I first tried parchment for the trim, but it delaminated when I tried to peel it from the sheet.

Next I used the same self adjesive plastic used for the car sides, but it was cut too thin, making it way too hard to apint and apply. I am going to thicken up the lines and try again.

The stairs and ramp are parchment, and I want to use wood for that, so dome rework is needed there too. I decided the windows are too small to apply as designed, so they will be redesigned too.

This is a first attempt shrink from a Z Scale kit. When i get it done, I will make a few available for those that want them, but the instructions will be the Z Scale kit's instructions, because I hate writing instructions. Cool

Me too if they were pre-assembled, LOL. Not sure I can quite get my fingers around building something that small with that level of detail. Looks absolutely fabulous.

Excellent! Station and coaches effectively destroy the "T Gauge" look. But that track... it sticks out like a sore thumb!
