The train arriving at platform...

Today was spent working on the station. I have been trying to create my art deco feel and have tried to create the feel with the canopy and windows. 

 

Started off completing the platform level walls

(walls all in and balsa edging around canopy edge to neaten plywood) 

 

I also felt that the canopy needed some sort of support structure underneath so cut more thin balsa strips to represent  cantilever concrete beams holding up the main canopy.

Having done this I then created the second storey which is meant to represent a cafe for ferry passengers with a seating area on the canopy.

(and the other side showing the art deco style picture windows for the platform waiting room and first floor cafe with views out across the ferry terminal. I would quite happily sit there sipping a hot chocolate and watching the transport moving about) 

 

Thanks for reading
