Does anyone have the name of the gentleman or company that makes wooden structures such as train stations, platforms, water towers etc? There was a thread a while back showing his work. I thought I read he would be at york?

Yes, Crescent Locomotive Works did a nice job in building a custom subway station for me. Below is the station as it was being built.
And below is part of the finished item

N5CJonny,
Can I ask what was the cost for this platform?

I bet the link to Crescent Locomotive Works is what you were looking for. Dave Duhamel owns, runs and builds all the structures. I have many of his structures including a custom ice platform and a wooden water tower with Spanish tile roof....it is incredible. Not only is he a great guy but his prices are unbeatable, especially considering the quality of his craftsmanship. I you are interested in pics of water tower let me know I will snap a post a couple.

It has been awhile since he built it for me, but I think it was around $75.00. I am sure his prices are higher now, just like everything else. Crescent did a very nice job in building that station. I just wish I had the room for some more stations.
Silk City Bridges, there the NJ High railers. Can make you anything you need
I installed a Crescent station and 3 platforms for a client this weekend, oh and a switch tower also. Very nice models, well lit, with full interiors. I can't believe he sells them for the price he does, but he does. I'm tempted to buy a switch tower so I can copy his construction techniques on future scratch builds. The stairs to the tower would take most guys a day in itself to build. Really nice work.
I myself await an order but just figure they are busy w/York and such. Look forward to my stuff. Keep you posted. I have seen them at shows and like the products so we will see. Top of The Day To Ya, Richard
Thanks John, I talked to Ben this morn and believe will be getting together on site from what I was told thursday. Look forward to Silk city bridge work here, Best regards
I never had a problem with Silk City Bridges, I've spent over $2,000 with them and everything is perfect!
Never got blown off.
