    I've been working on this building off and on lately and finally finished all the pieces for it. It is a freight transfer building that would sit next to a track on one side with a road on the other side. Trucks could load/unload on the road side of the building via a dock that wraps around the building on those two sides.

    I designed it with an option to also print a floor that has partition walls for an office, bathroom and small store room. You could use this option and also have a lift off roof is so desired. The roof is supported by trusses. You could also print the bare floor and just put items on the dock and by the freight doors.

    The roof prints flat but you could place the skylights I posted about on a separate build or other roof fixtures. I'll post a link to a better description and more pictures on my site below along with a link to the printable files on my thingiverse.com account.

    Nice work! It definitely has a mid-20th century look to it, where 40 and 50' boxcars would be right at home.
