Well, it’s been about 8 months since my last update.  I’ve been too busy working on the layout, and just now getting around to updating my blog.

Apologies up front about this rambling commentary......

I've started to look at my life as a book with different chapters. As an example, I used to be into cars (had a 32' Plymouth streetrod), then into camping (had a popup camper) then into boating (had a 17 ft run-about).....you get the idea.

I'm looking for a kit similar to the smaller front building in the following images. Or something I could possibly bash to look like it. The station was originally run by the United Fruit Company and then transferred to the Northern Railway in Costa Rica. Any tips would be appreciated.

Another view and in color.

Well I'm still awaiting more roofing material to finish the main roof off. So for now I've mounted hinges on the doors and put them in place as you'll see in the following images.

I decided to use after market hinges as the ones in the kit are peel and stick and I wanted something a little more realistic with a working hinge. So I came across campbell scale models strap hinges and ordered a them.
