MOC: Modified 7937 Train Station

[The Yellow Brick]

I've decided to update the 7937 train station because my city really needs a bigger station

Original version -

(Picture from Brickset)

My modified version -

I have used the buffer design from Railbricks Issue 7

Birds eye view

Now that there is a siding, the cargo train can pass with no problems

Oh no, looks like another cat fight has broken out again .

As normal C & C welcome .

I agree that the original isnt big enough. You have made a great job at extending it and I love the extra siding, nice work .

Thanks, CB

Thank you crabboy329, I will be adding another track down the other side,

so that a train can stay in the station and another can pass.

Sound like a good idea. If only lego though of that , I may have bought it. Cant wait to see it finished .

Thanks, CB

Thanks, CB

Nice - a sensible mod given that the original platform obviously isn't long enough.

Looks good !

Next you might want to consider adding some kind of canopy to keep the waiting passengers out of the rain....

I was thinking about adding a canopy, but I'll have to widen the platform first , I've also extended the platform even more and it now has two tracks running through the station.

Nice MOD. I might do something like this to my train station.

By the way, who won that catfight?

Erm.... No one won the fight because they both fell onto the tracks when the 3 O'Clock train was pulling in You should do somthing to your station too

Okay here are some fresh images of the fresh update

As you can see I decided to add another track, So that the train which is stopped picking up passangers dosn't have to pull out to let another train

At both ends I used some flexi track to help get the tracks running side by side (see they ain't so bad )

The whole station

The bridge

Bridseye view

Thats all for now folks.

C & C welcome as always

Very nice The Red Brick I love the new adaptation and looks great. But as someone else said, a canopy on the other platform would be nice. Keep up the good work .

Thanks, CB

Great MODs, The Red Brick! I like the newest version best, it looks the most realistic. You may have just persuaded me to get 7937, and MOD it in a similar way to yours.

Well done.

Thank you Crabboy329, I'm starting to make the canopy now, so I'll have it added soon

i added a 2nd track right when i got it, and can be done with no extra pieces:

but yours is very cool, i love the buffer, and the long platform.
