If it's smaller than a bread box then it belongs in here. Post comments, stories, photos and whatever else seems appropriate for a model railway forum.

Just wondering if any of Kanamodel's kits are suitable for DAR structures.

Their CPR sanding tower is almost a dead ringer for the Kentville Sanding Tower. Their octagonal CPR water tower is a good match for the Kentville water tower - just move a window or two. The little CPR branchline station is good approximation of the Weston line stations - a bit smaller but catches the style nicely. The CPR Lineside buildings are typical with the speeder shed a dead ringer for numerous DAR speeder sheds, except for the door.

Cheers, Dan

Awesome. Thanks Dan!

Its a bit hard to tell from the angle of the photo, but does the branchline station kit have a lower pitched roof from the CVR buildings?

Yes, I think the pitch is lower, but not by too much. Of course this is such a nice simple station that it is also a good scratchbuilt project but sometimes a good compatible kits is nice to speed along a layout.
