CNW1961's Scratchbuild '09 Summer Challenge

[cnw1961]

After I determined the dimensions, I cut the walls from .080" styrene. The dimensions of my structure will be almost to scale, only the long side wall facing the tracks will be a few scale feet shorter than the prototype.



Next I glued styrene strips that will support the roof and the floor to the insides of the walls.



Before I started to assemble the walls, I cut the roof and the floor from 1/8" cardboard. The thick cardboard will make the structure quite sturdy and will prevent the styrene from warping.
