This kit is based on plan F353E June1953 that is a typical country platform using timber uprights and precast concrete as the retaining wall.  It comes with one 250ft scale length of platform facing and two side wing walls. This platform style is still in use 50 years on around the Victorian Railways system and would suit anyone modelling the modern era as well.  Most were earthen filled from behind the station and this is left up to the modeller to decide upon whether another backing piece is needed or a gentle modelled slope blending into the surrounding scenery.

Completed kit prior to staining / painting and adding in earthen fill behind the face.
