I said that when I had the track down I'd get the platform in before making a start on the station building, but having the main shape and level blocked in I could get some exact measurements for the footprint it would occupy.
A quick weekends work saw the main structure assembled:
Rather than lop the station building in half and covering the back with facia boards I thought I'd have a try at making a structure to fit the space, in this case an irregular hexagon.
Surprisingly construction wasn't all that difficult, I certainly seem to be improving at mitring the edges of Will's sheets with a sanding board.
Inspiration was very much from the original Corris station, hence the platform side of the building being a wooden screen.
Still requires a small amount of filler, and obviously painting, before I can call it done. Then there's the eventual challenge of building the canopy to go with it.
