Life-Like Trains N Scale Building Kit - Downtown Hotel

Great kit, It didn't cost much and was pretty easy to assemble.

I see many people complain about the assembly of these plastic models, clearly they have no idea of what is required when it was purchased. All models require some work and fitting of parts. Additional paint is optional but essential for a realistic look. It is part of the fun working the parts and building the finished product. It also demands that you develop the skills to make them. These skills are not included with the model and are developed over time and practice. Start small and work your way up. So much information is available on the internet to teach these skills and techniques for an impressive finished result. Take your time and enjoy the adventure. These skills will come in handy during a lifetime as they can be applied to real life projects... j

I'm very happy with this hotel for my N scale layout. It really looks nice and assembly was straightforward with no major problems. There aren't that many downtown hotels for N scale and you can't beat this one for the money. It is very detailed for N scale and doesn't look toy like.

My Dad loves trains & has several around the house fully operational. Lately he has added 2 new additions & they are his first N scale trains. He has two & has built a platform for the trains to run on, going around his large fish tank. It’s really very neat & the grandkids love to watch the trains go around the tank. Lately, we have been adding N size buildings, railroad crossing signs, lights….. to go beside the track to add to the realistic vib. This little building was a great addition & is perfect. I did not know when I ordered it that it had to be put together. I’m sure that was my error. My Dad loves a challenge though, & it indeed was one. It requires tweezers in order to handle the tiny pieces to put it together. This is not a young child’s project, so keep that in mind . The size ended up being perfect & we really like it!

I've had my frustrations with kits, but this one was pretty easy to put together.

good product turned out great

The model parts “snap” into place well for easy gluing and are molded in three colors: brown, gray and white. You could get away with not painting, but will be disappointed with the toy plastic look and lack of detail. I paint all of my models and I also like to add LED lights in my buildings, so I had to use plastic putty along the base of the exterior walls to avoid light leakage. In the end, the building is a nice addition to my layout, but this brand of models doesn’t stand up to the detail and quality of others, such as Walthers and Woodland Scenics.

Edificio detallado y fácil de pintar y ensamblar con ayuda de pegamento, lo usaré como una estación secundaria en mi maqueta.
