Specific Item Information: This N scale flag and lantern stand was used by caboose crews to replenish the lights, flares and other safety equipment used on the road. The lower level was a place to store basic supplies. The upper deck and shed were used to easily get to the roof of the caboose to clean windows and service marker lights. A walkway would bridge the gap between the platform and the caboose roof for easy access. This complex-looking structure builds quickly with the laser-cut framing and stairs. This is a quality craftsman kit with thorough instructions that are amply illustrated.

Footprint is 1/2″ x 2 1/4″.
Road Name History:
Railroad structures include but are not limited to stations, depots, yard offices, interlocking towers and tanks. A train station, railway station, railroad station, or depot is a railway facility where trains regularly stop to load or unload passengers or freight.

It generally consists of at least one track-side platform and a station building (depot) providing such ancillary services as ticket sales and waiting rooms. If a station is on a single-track line, it often has a passing loop to facilitate traffic movements. The smallest stations are most often referred to as "stops" or, in some parts of the world, as "halts" (flag stops). Stations may be at ground level, underground, or elevated. Connections may be available to intersecting rail lines or other transport modes such as buses, trams or other rapid transit systems.
