Ophir Station - Constuction

 

Work has started on building the station to go in the town of Ophir on the layout.

 

The Rio Grande Southern’s Ophir Station did not fit the scene correctly.  Barry found the

RGS Delores Station fit better.  So here is the Delores station in 1/22.5 scale.

Note:  first two photos are larger formats, after opening you can expand even more.  Third is showing the drawing mock-up used for testing site.

 

Here is the station after a few days of work.  The first four pictures show progress over the Thanksgiving weekend.

The next show after a few more days work since.  Ward is going to cut the gable parts and roof shingles. I think I can

start painting it now, and should be ready by the time Ward gets through with his work. I glued all the doors and

 windows together tonight and took the picture with them just placed in the holes.           - Barry                             .
