Please read these instructions fully before starting construction.
PVA or equivalent glue will be required to stick sections together.
Sand paper can be used to gently clean any joints.
A sharp modelling knife will be required to remove sections from the sprue. Please use knives with due care and
remember to cut away from yourself at all times.
During the construction of this model, you may find it convenient to use pegs / elastic bands to hold pieces in
place while you allow glue to dry.
Take the pieces which form the back of the cabinet.
Stick them together as shown above.
Then add the front piece.

Painting
We sprayed the cabinet of the station with a black car undercoat and the panels with a white car undercoat.
Once dry, the cabinet was heavily dry brushed with a bright yellow colour emulsion paint, which when used over the
black undercoat gives the industrial yellow / green shown in the pictures once it has dried.
All the panels had their details picked out with model colour, using a random pattern for the lights.
