Enhance your N Scale Walthers Cornerstone Union Station kit or other train depots with these Butterfly-Style Station Platform Shelters. Ideal for steam, transition, or diesel-era layouts, these shelters are a must - have for train enthusiasts. The Butterfly design, with its up - swept, wing - shaped roof, was popular in the early 20th century due to its cost - effectiveness and low maintenance. It offers good ventilation for engine exhaust and protects passengers from the sun and rain. This kit comes with parts for eight complete platforms and has a modular design, allowing you to combine multiple kits to create longer platforms. Optional underground subway stairway entrances are included for a more realistic look. You'll also find wooden walkway crossings between tracks, platform benches, detailed steel columns, platform signboards, and other realistic details. The kit is molded in appropriate colors and is an easy - to - build plastic kit. Each platform section measures 6 - 1/8 x 1 - 1/4 x 1 - 3/8 inches (15.3 x 3.1 x 3.4 cm).


Using this N Scale Butterfly - Style Station Platform Shelters kit is a breeze. First, unpack all the parts carefully and lay them out. You can start assembling the individual platform parts according to the included instructions. If you want longer platforms, you can connect multiple kits easily thanks to the modular design. The optional underground subway stairway entrances can be added for more realism. Just place them where you think they fit best on your layout. When it comes to placement, these shelters look great next to the Union Station or other trackside businesses. For maintenance, keep the platforms away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to prevent the plastic from warping. If they get dirty, you can gently clean them with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they might damage the colors or the plastic. Enjoy building your detailed terminal scene with this amazing kit!
