Bring an authentic southwestern touch to your railroad layout with the Walthers Cornerstone Mission-Style Freight House. Based on a classic Santa Fe design, it was part of a trend to sell the American southwest as a vacation destination. Many stations and freight houses got a makeover with pinkish - tan stucco walls, tile roofs, and mission - style trim, looking like traditional adobe buildings. This easy - to - build kit comes with a realistic stucco structure, window glazing, wood trim, a brick platform, and realistic printed signs. You can use it alone or pair it with the Mission - Style Depot (933 - 2920, sold separately). It's perfect for smaller cities and towns in layouts from the 1930s to the present. Features include separate windows and doors, a brick platform, realistic printed signs, and it's molded in four colors and clear.

Using this Walthers Mission - Style Freight House is a breeze. First, open the kit and lay out all the parts. Start by assembling the stucco structure, following the included instructions. Attach the window glazing carefully to give it a realistic look. Then, add the wood trim and the brick platform. You can use the printed signs to make it look even more authentic. You can place it on your layout by itself or combine it with the Mission - Style Depot. When handling the parts, be gentle as they are delicate. Avoid dropping or bending them. To keep it in good condition, store it in a dry place away from direct sunlight. If it gets dirty, you can use a soft, dry cloth to clean it. Don't use any harsh chemicals as they might damage the colors or the materials.
