Here we have the Genco Olive oil company for Ben and the NJ Highrailers , approximately 33"long 18" wide , 20" tall , resin cast brick , laser cut windows , a fictitious building but modeled from pictures of warehouses which were situated along the elevated where a line would actually go through several buildings .
Notice there are no corner seams showing.

Great Job, Superb.
An interesting an unique approach to "covered" elevated unloading.

Reminds me of buildings around the High Line in Manhattan, which I assume was intended.
(For those not familiar, the High Line was a elevated freight line down the west side of the City that has been turned into an amazing linear park. A must see if you visit NYC.)
That is very nice. Are those custom resin cast bick patterns or do you buy them?
Stunning!! I especially like what appears to be glass block around the entry way.

Thanks to all for the comments , yes this was inspired by the highline in Manhattan . These are my own resin cast parts . It is always cool to build large buildings for the premier large railroad of the Highrailers . Thanks to Ben as always . As some of you know I make buildings and train cars for myself and a few others.
The nice thing about these buildings , is one side could be used as a backdrop front only, or back.
I make similar flats with the brick but have loading doors at track level .

Very nice job.

Here was a station complex , built as if it was a Lionel uncatalogued accessory , the base depicting the "box" it came in. Seeing how important Lionel boxes are 
This was about 7ft long .
This was built 15 yrs ago by me . I believe it resides now somewhere near Saginaw Michigan.
fabulous work,Bernie. do you have website to look at others and what else you do?

Fantastic.
Looks like it can be made from 2 or 3 molds not including the roof.
UNREAL!
Beautiful craftsmanship.
Bernie,
That is a beautiful example of superb craftsmanship!
I particularly like the swing-out window bottoms on the top floor. I worked in a building that had windows just like that. On the bottom floor, the top side of the windows swung out and required a long handle to turn the gearing that opened the windows. But on the top floor they could be opened by just turning the locking lever and pushing the swing-out portion - like yours!
Thank you for sharing.

a rod to turn
That is great work, will fit in nice at the NJHiRailers!!!
