Fairbanks on my Module.


I took some photos of my Fairbanks flag stop on my 6 foot module. It will find a home once a complete my shelf style layout along one wall of my basement...George Dutka  



On my module the Fairbanks flag stop fits in well.

More Fairbanks Flagstop!

The finished model is resting on the MR article I used to inspire me through this build.
Here is more on the build of my Fairbanks flag stop...George Dutka 

The trim although spray can painted green got a coating of PanPastel green to better reflect the fading of the green.

The walls also got a coat of PanPastel grey. I used two tones to get a faded effect.

The model is complete. I added a grey tarpaper roof to my model.

Maplewood Flag Stop


I noticed that on the SR&RL Facebook page the group raised the Maplewood flag stop off the ground a couple of weekend ago. Looks better and should last a lot longer too...George Dutka

Fairbanks, Maine Flagstop

The walls are made from styrene but I used wood for the corner trim and supports.
Here are some construction photos of my version of the SR&RL  Fairbanks, Maine flagstop. More to come...George Dutka

My walls are placed on the photo of the MR article I was working from.

Ready to be assembled

Ready for paint. Styrene roof is made. The window and doors are from Grandt Line parts package.

I used some wood trim to finish off the rear window as I seen in a photo I have and posted back in the summer.

Camo Coat green is applied on parts and Rust-Oleum primer is used on walls.
The sign in the MR article on the prototype photo was about the right size. So I photocopied it and used blue chalk around the lettering to get the coloring of the sign.
