When you cannot find, Ask.

Good evening, somewere in one of the forums I found a two level station or a transfer station, one up, one down. The bottom was HO and the top was a trolley or doodlebug, I made a copy, but cannot find it, I truly do put things away, but don't remember where, I cannot find it in any of the forums I believe it was red in color, and brick design, and steps running down the front in order to get down or up to each station. Has any one seen this station. I was planning on scratch building two of these stations. Many Thanks in advance

Hi Doug...

There are a number of threads in the Photography forum that have interesting "real world" buildings. This is a link to the thread on stations:

Hope that helps.

I don't know if I have ever seen a picture of it on the internet, but it seems to me in some of the train books I've read over the year that there was a station back East, maybe West Virginia, that was two levels at a location where one railroad crossed over the top of another. I think it was a C & O crossing the Southern RR, but I'm not sure. I don't think I've ever heard of a two story station where the lower level served a railroad and the upper level served a trolley line. Of course that doesn't mean there wasn't such a place.

Many thanks. That is a fine collection of station pictures, two stood out, the ticket booth at Machu-picchu in Peru, and the one in Chamby, Switzerland, this has a good possibility. Cheers

Hi Doug, take a look at my post "A touch of John Allen", if this is the one you were talking about I have the original plans for the Allen one and if you talk real nice to an old man I could e-mail them to you. The one I did was a kitbash. Jim
