Myles is by far our youngest contributor here at the Guild. He is an N scale modeler along with his Father. He is also a fellow member at the local MR club. Myles was team leader of our modular layout at this year's show and did a fantastic job. We welcome Myles to the Guild.

Being a Chessie system fan who has started to model the Canadian Division, I was more then happy to build this kit. It was rather tricky though, due to the fact that there were no instructions included with this particular kit.

I first cut out all four walls and filed the edges down to 45 degree angles so they would fit together nicely. I glued the front wall to the right wall and the back wall to the left wall. This gave me two halves. I then painted them.

I was trying to model the prototypical version of this kit, so I printed some pictures to help me get the right paint mixture. I experimented a few times with different colors before I got the right mixture. The final color isn’t perfect, but it’ll do.

I then painted all the doors and window sills and the mortar between the bricks.

Next step was the stairs. I spent a fair amount of time gluing them together and gluing the hand rails (I made them from scrap wire) to the stairs. I then glued the walls together and put the floors in.

I didn’t put the roof on, preeminently because I’m going to put an interior in it once I find suitable photographs.
