    Over the past few months my layout has gone through many changes. Our most recent undertaking was deciding what passenger station to choose. We decided to go with the Walthers Milwaukee Train Shed kit. At first glance the kit looked like a bit of an undertaking but after a few hours of cutting and gluing we got it all together and it looks phenomenal. We wanted to have a very large station but since the area where we decided to put the station was only 16 inches wide we has to chop the whole thing down the middle. So now we have an almost 4 foot 3 track station platform!
    We were both very pleased with how it came out. Now a little paint and some weathering and we'll be ready to go.
    Here's a few pictures of it so far.

    Nice shed. Looks real cool down the inside.

    If you haven't done it already, you may want to replace that light switch with a remote one. I installed one to replace my wall switch which is now blocked by benchwork.

    The Zenith Wireless Switch/Receiver unit replaces standard wall switch with a wireless remote switch.
