Golden Valley Route
Walthers Cornerstone - Golden Valley Freight House
I used the color scheme of the D&RGW buildings.
Polly scale colors:
DRGW building cream and DRGW building brown and gave it just a light wash of Polly Scale Dirt.
(In the 50s the railroad companies spent money on their buildings, keeping them in good shape! Or so I've read...)
The wooden parts are painted with PS Roof Brown, then a wash of light grey, some sand papering and another light drybrushing with light grey.
The roof (shingles) I painted with PS 'railroad tie brown' and then dry brushed it with light grey.
Props
The palettes are from Preiser and the crates/boxes are JL Innovative design
