First Look: 3-D Printed REA Express Building for Union Station

After mostly finishing Union Station, I got to looking at the REA Express Building just to the right of the station.  I had originally planned on using  a printed paper facade glued to foam board and decided that the building really needed to be 3-D to complement the main station.  So over the last couple of weeks, I designed and 3-D printed the building as shown in the video above.

Union Station Project Update

The 3D printed Union Station project is essentially completed.  The slide show video above gives an overview of the project details & costs (approximately $86).

Unusual Delivery to the Morris Feed Lot

The latest stock train made this unusual delivery to the Morris feed lot.  Apparently one of the cows, in the pen second from the right, has fainted after seeing the delivery...

The fantastical figures were a Father's Day gift from the wife.

Mid - June Update

A few months ago (before getting heavily involved in the Union Station project), I decided to move the oil loading platform from its original position in the middle of Elizabeth City (Tulsa) to a more open (and larger)  area on the opposite end of the upper level of the peninsula.  The picture above shows the new location.

The 3D Printed N-Scale Union Station Project Continues - Parts 2 & 2A

 

 

After a lot of measurements and a couple of test prints, the center section of the main station building was glued together and test fit to the lower level and then to the passenger waiting room building.  This way, the waiting room structure can be taken off of the layout separately from the main station building. The video above shows what that looks like.
