Please note that it is difficult to automatically calculate accurate shipping for very small and light items, like parts, etched steps, etc.  But feel free to place your order regardless, with the assurance that I will refund any and all freight over charges upon shipping.   You will pay actual shipping plus a small handling charge to cover shipping supplies in all cases.

Shipping update:   I will ship via USPS Priority Mail only, as UPS and FedEx are not interested in dealing with small shippers.  Please note that while USPS has been generally very reliable and the tracking is excellent, if they damage a shipment, even to the point of crushing the box, they WILL NOT pay a claim in my experience.  All shipping is therefore done on a best effort basis.  While we will work with you to resolve any damaged shipments, be advised that insurance from USPS is unlikely to work, period.  We are very experienced in proper packaging and always do our best to insure the product arrives safely.

For both International AND Domestic orders, if shipping amount seems high, be assured that I will credit any shipping over-charges at time of order shipment.

We believe this to be the most accurate version of this item ever offered.   It's based on very careful measurements I made of a Lehigh Valley RR booth produced by the C. F. Massey Company and still standing next to an abandoned branch-line near Bernice, PA.    Jim Lincoln did the CAD drawings from my measurements, and we are offering them as 3D printed models, unpainted in white.   All are offered with no door, since it would be too thin to print.  Either make your own from styrene or wood, or leave it open for an abandoned look!  The possible variations are shown as follows:


 

HO scale no smoke jack, printed with WSF material and representing a bit of a weathered concrete appearance.



 
HO scale with smoke jack, printed in FUD material and representing newer concrete, while still having texture.   Smoke jack is part of roof.

HO scale with smoke jack (Elevated View), printed in FUD material and representing newer concrete, while still having texture.   Smoke jack is part of roof.

What you get (shown partially painted): Remove roof and smoke jack from sprue, invert booth, press fit after painting interior if desired.
