Zero Platform Book Nook Kit | Steampunk Train Station DIY Miniature with LED

The Last Train Leaves From the Zero Platform

This book nook kit from the Dark Magic series builds "The Zero Platform", a Victorian steampunk railway station where a red and black steam locomotive bursts out of a brick tunnel with purple smoke curling from its funnel. Above the tracks, a stained glass canopy arches over the platform and a great astronomical clock with golden gears keeps station time. Upstairs, a waiting room with tall arched windows looks down over a balcony; below, a luggage trolley waits with a red suitcase, next to a red postbox, a bench and a lamppost marked TRAIN. Warm LED light glows through every window.
