OK since I completed all the new trackwork, I can finally work on the Denver Union Station.
I had the Walthers wood station platforms, and they just never matched the prototype. Walthers has a new station platform kts now, and they include LED lighting. And everything is included. Resistors, wires, etc. Good directions with photos too.
Heres the kit:
I had the old platforms in between the tracks. And it looked funny when freights went by. So I decided to put the new platforms on the inside of the station tracks. Also these concrete bases are higher than the old platforms, so I need to raise the station up to the level of the platforms, by adding another layer of sheet cork.
Here is what I got laid out so far. The base will be concrete, and the platforms will be painted green to match the prototype.
And here's the real thing.
Actually these are the old platforms. They just completed a huge re-development project and they took out the old platforms and replaced it was a futurisitic looking platforms. It now serves passenger trains, light rail, buses. The new transportation hub for Denver now.
