Paris, Ontario
This will be a familiar view to local railfans. Looking West from the road crossing in Paris.

As far as I can go for now….
Spent the afternoon working on the station and have got it as far as I can go. The roof needs to be covered with tarpaper and the evestroughs need to be added. Usually I make tar paper with masking tape strips painted black, but I thought this time I would give some of those printed materials a try. I ordered a few different types online last week and will have to wait until they arrive before I can complete the station.
I slopped on some dark stain onto the roof, but that just made a mess. Should have left it wood for now.
Some trim painted.
Did a bit of work on the station tonight. Painted the contrasting trim to match the prototype of the LaSalette station with a darker green. I am not 100% happy with the base color I mixed up for the station, but it is fairly close to what I think was used on the station.
The CASO station in Waterford, Ontario has been restored and I believe the colors used there are close to the original colors so I used that to get the colors close.
I need to glaze the windows with some clear styrene, but it is way out in the shop, and I didn’t feel like walking through the snow, so I called it quits for the night.
