Woodland Scenics N Power Substation

I installed a Woodland Scenics N power substation, with their N chain link fence kit, on my triple-wide urban-industrial T-TRAK module.

As I get older and my fingers don't work as well, I'm finding Woodland Scenics built-up models an acceptable substitute for kits and scratchbuilding. The other structures in the scene are N scale building flats, some of which have been made more 3-dimensional with foamcore additions.

The building to the left is an abandoned factory from PTF Designs, a low-relief model installed as is. The one to the right is from Trackside Flats with a foamcore additon to make it 3-dimensional. I added fine ground foam "ivy" to the sidewalls to make up for the fact that they don't have detail. The buildings to the rear are plain flats from Trackside Flats.

The photo details on Trackside Flats N scale flats come out with a really good 3D effect for fire escapes, drain pipes, and so forth in photos. I have more N roof details like ducts to add to the 3D building roofs, and it looks like the ground areas can use more barrels, pallets, vehcles, and so forth a la George Sellios.
