Frequently Asked Questions
How big is it?The finished shop measures 10-1/2 x 15-1/2 x 5-9/16 inches (26.67 x 39.37 x 13.99cm), so plan your engine terminal around that footprint.
Does it need to sit below grade?It is designed for slightly below-ground placement to model built-in service pits. Plan for a shallow recess in your benchwork or scenery to show the pits as intended.
Can I light the interior?Yes. The interior is roomy enough for a lighting upgrade. Lighting is not included in the kit.
What era does it fit?It is modeled on facilities used from the 1980s to today, so it suits any modern diesel-era layout. Pair it with the Walthers Cornerstone fueling and sanding facilities to build out a full terminal.
