For generations of travelers, Union Station was the magical gateway to and
from the world. Here is where the journeys of the finest trains on the line
started and ended. Where travelers rushed to make their connections. And
thousands of commuters began and ended their workday.
Where space was limited in larger towns and cities, two or more railroads
would often combine their resources to build and operate major terminal
stations. Monuments to the power and success of railroading, they also
projected the spirit of the community they served and the promise of
excellent service for anyone who traveled by train.
Now, Walthers unveils the all-new Union Station, a fitting tribute to the
grand terminals that served railroading for over 100 years. Whether your
line runs heavyweights and steam, the flashy diesel streamliners of the 40s
and 50s, or any of the colorful schemes and equipment of the Amtrak-era,
Union Station is an ideal focal point for passenger operations.
Designed to capture the look and feel of similar prototypes across America,
it puts big detail in a small space without overwhelming your layout. If
space is limited, it can be the focal point of operations for an entire
layout.
And best of all, this unique kit is based on an American prototype, so it
looks right and fits perfectly without kitbashing.
All the classic design elements are here, from the tall support columns to
the nonworking clock on the roof. Each wall captures the look of cut-stone
construction and is molded in color so painting is an option. Separate
doors and windows, along with molded-in cut lines on the back of each wall
simplify customizing. The large roof is neatly detailed with large
skylights and numerous vents to make it more realistic. End-door canopies,
realistic decals and many other details are also included.
Complete your station scene with the Butterfly Style Station Platform
Shelters (933-3175), sold separately.
