Rural Frisco Depot
Here it is, the winner of the Brick Train Awards Best Structure for North America, the St James Frisco Depot. It took about three weeks of on and off building and lots of fiddling, kragle, and pieces.
Some history of the depot: The railroad depot at St. James, Missouri, used by the St. Louis-San Francisco Railway Company. In 1839 Samuel Massey met with other Missourians at a Railroad Convention in St. Louis and planned a railroad from St. Louis to the Maramec Iron Works in St. James. On July 4, 1860 the first train arrived.
I used the floor plans available to plan out the sections of the building, and had to use knowledge of Frisco depots during the era to get the correct colors of the depot.
