Customizing a Lionel Freight Platform #6-2784

I recently acquired a Lionel Freight Platform #6-2784 in unassembled kit form. This is a very basic plastic kit that can be customized and repainted to make a realistic freight platform that will fit nicely on an industrial siding. I will be adding a ceiling with interior LED lighting. I will also add an outdoor lamp and window "glass".

This structure is also available as Lionel 6-16880 which is a built up model.

Note: This post is intended as information for the general reader. If others care to comment on the topic or contribute ideas to further the modeling activity it is there option to do so.

Photos of the completed model shown. Color scheme 1 of 3.
