I finished this Grandt Line HO warehouse kit for our Northwestern Pacific Railroad layout. It will probably end up in Duncan's Mills area of the layout. It was a fun build.

Specs:
Kit - Grandt Line HO Corrugated Iron Warehouse Plastic Kit HO scale. The footprint of the warehouse is 4-3/4 x 6-1/4".
Details – Various manufactures from Walthers, Scratch built platform.
Paint – Model Masters enamel for roof and walls, Golden acrylics all other areas, powders over everything.
Weathering – Micro-Mark Age-it easy, AIM weathering powders.
 
Hey Dave, do you have any pictures of your layout? I would like to see what you have going. I live on what used to be the north end of the old NWP...I drive buy an old NWP GP-9, that was used by the North Coast Railroad before it shut down. Great looking build.
 
Thanks for the comments.

Devin, the NWP layout is a friend's. We have been working on it since 2005. I build the cars and structures while he does all the hard work (Benchwork, track, electrical, etc.)

I find some photos to post.
