    Hi all,

    It has been a long time since i wanted to model this building.
    Holiday is a good time to play with SketchUp outside of work 😉
    Built in 1913 in Antsirabe, on the high malagasy plateau, typical colonial style.
    No trains anymore unfortunately......

    Hope you'll enjoy.

      Very nice job. I like old train stations. My Grandfather worked for the Santa Fe railroad and my Dad was an architect so I am partial to the old stations architectural styles.

      Nice render.

        Nice work.

        I work a couple of blocks away from this train station. Now a museum and trains go by everyday. The Depot Roundhouse is where we had our wedding reception as well, it is right next door.

          What could you do to make the scene come alive? It looks like a Sunday afternoon of the year the plague killed everybody in town. The model is nice but it needs some vibrancy and a lot less empty sky.

            Thanks for comments.

            @ eric:
            No hijacked at all, you are absolutely in the subject "railway station". This round house looks really nice,
            almost contemporary and it should be a good place for reception.
            By the way i much appreciate your work but also your great thread "Funny pics" which is my first read on the forum 😆

            @mwm5053:
            Might go on some more, probably next one will be Antananarivo station.

            @roger:
            Well, I did nothing more than what it looks like, Antsirabe is a very quiet town, have a look at the picture which I used to model
