Wayne,
Looks like we follow the same blogs...
It's definitely insulbrick and the kind of yellowish brown variety. I found nice picture of it from a home improvement blog and photoshopped it. I'll try to print it during the week. I'm not to sure about cutting everything and gluing it. In all honesty, that would be crazy. Each insulbrick panel is about 3/8" x 3/16" in HO scale. Also, on the picture of Lairet Station, the siding looks to be in good shape and you can barely see seams. I don't know what you think about it, but I feel like scribbing lightly the printed paper would bring a nice shadow line enough to bring some texture. I think the wood trims at corner and windows.
BTW, the station structure itself is now built. It's almost bullet proof! Made out of 1/2" MDF, it must weight about 2 lbs!
