MOC: Countryside train station

Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

as I am starting a new small layout which should represent a village in the french countryside, I decided to build a small station to host the intercity train to Paris. :wub:

The exterior mainly consists of 3 blocks with different slopes, some flowers decoration and some lights. Note that the size of the station as well as the color choice are limited by the economical funding of the village :blush: (not so much at the moment).

The sticker are self-made but I think essential for a station.

Some pics here:

Unfortunately the interiors are small :sceptic: and the priority was the facade so there is just space for a small waiting room and the ticket office (downstairs) and the control room (upstairs):

What do you think? I hope to finish soon the Intercity train I am building and post some pics here :classic:

This has that classic town feel all over it. I like the fact it is a small building with a large platform. It reminds me of the older catalogues where you would see large diorama's with official sets in them.

Very nice little train station, I love the roof and the colour scheme works really well! I like the stickers too, you haven't gone over board with them, they're just right :classic:

Great job all around and happy building :laugh:

Thanks guys, :blush: :blush: I am planning to build all the layout in this "classic town" style. Maybe cause I can do only this kind of small MOCs :sceptic: . I am also planning to change my other station: http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=80195&hl=skystorm87#entry1535061 which belongs to my older layout I have in Sicily but I have to wait to be there to brick it!

Soon I will publish more details on the trains and on the bridge you might have seen in some pics

Nice! One small idea though .. attach the red roof plates with these pieces instead (BL : 6044 - comes in white as well) :
