Here is some of the other detail items included with the kit. Signs, printouts of carton boxes you fold and glue over a wood or styrene core, newspapers, and three drums with seperate tops. Very nice touch. Oh, also a relay cabinet I elected not to use but save for future use.
As you can see, with the exception of the handrails, whose challenge will differ from modeller to modeller based on their skills, this is an easy to build kit, in fact the painting takes longer than assembly. Once painted, the windows and door glue in place in minutes, the roof in seconds. The smokestacks just require a couple holes to be drilled. And you wind up with a very interesting model, I love the rooflines. You have no problems with getting roof panels or wall corners aligned. And you get some nice details. I recommend this kit highly to anyone looking for a masonry station/yard office. Her are some final shots, with a minimum of scenery put in place.
