Static Madness

Hi,

Since layout is static, this serves as a showcase of PTN's Eastern Division.

Ueno-Los Angeles Passage Terminal (East face) serving various lines.

What would you ride?

Is that a modified version of Walthers Union station kit? Looks like a really nice kit, but I haven't got one because it's too big for my layout. Looks like you've just used the middle part. How big is your version?

indeed, this is the main section of Walters Union Station.  This section bears a superficial resemblance to Ueno's main structure (subjective).

I've split the wings using those as stand alone depots.  Not shown above.  Walters model would otherwise occupy a big footprint if placed as intended.

Since these photos, have since modified:  Length layout is 7ft.  Walters model just takes 7 inches.  Tracks are sitting on three sections of Ikea (Kax?) units.

Thanks for viewing!

I’m very curious, what train is this?

Yap, that's the MicroAce A0300 Maya34-2002 High Speed Inspection Car

Thought this is a unique model.  Makes a good addition for one's M.O.W. roster.
