I'm looking for a pic or two or three of the CN passenger terminal and office Tower in down town Edmonton. Anyone have a lead?
Hi, Rick! The older CN tower in Edmonton is no longer a passenger terminal, but it's still there. There is a new Via passenger terminal. If you like, I could stop by and take some pictures. What sort of details are you looking for?
I want to scratch build the old CN tower in N scale. Its basically a building in two parts, the high rise and the bottom part whatever you call it. If I could have all four views, especially the bottom part, that would be great. If another building is attached to the side of the CN tower, I probably will leave it off. I want a more contemporary station for the layout, and I figured it would fit in nicely. So 4 views if it is possible, if not, anything would be great. Thanks
I'll get on that ASAP, Rick! It's usually not too often that I head into the city, but when I do, I'll be sure to take a few pictures.
STILL haven't made it into the city...I'm really busy with 14 hour days at work, and trying to move as well. As soon as I can, I'll let you know. You might also want to talk to RockIslandMike, or Paul Davis (from The-Gauge). Perhaps they have more time.
Lighthorse, If I can have them in the next 3 to 5 months that will be great. I just laid one third of my layouts track, have to build a more difficult section of benchwork connecting my two decks, then track that. Building the CN tower is on my to do list, but I can wait. I have found one picture of it in a book, but I'm too cheap to buy the entire book for one picture. Don't take lots of pics as I am not going to be scratch building it to absolute prototypical modelling. It strikes me as something easy to build and modern to boot. Right now I am just in the final throws of finishing a scratch built modern Canadian Granary that will look great on the upper deck.
