Walthers Cornerstone HO Scale Subway Entrance Kit - 933-3762

Walthers Cornerstone HO Scale Subway Entrance Kit - 933-3762 adds underground mass-transit access to an HO scale city scene. Based on subway entrances found along city streets, the kit includes parts to build two complete entrances and provides several options for adapting their appearance to different locations and eras. Modelers can build traditional open entrances or a more modern covered version, making the set suitable for city scenes from the early 1900s onward. Browse the complete Walthers Cornerstone model railroad buildings and structures collection for additional HO scale structures and city details.

Subway entrances provide a simple way to suggest a much larger transit system without modeling an entire underground railroad. Positioned along sidewalks, near commercial buildings, or beside a busy intersection, these structures establish access to transportation infrastructure below street level while requiring relatively little surface space.

Build Two HO Scale Subway Entrances

The Walthers Cornerstone Subway Entrance kit includes parts and options for creating two complete urban transit entrances:

• Parts to build two complete subway entrance models
• Classic subway entrance with stairways
• Stairwell for below-surface detailing
• Choice of streetside or setback installation
• Right- or left-hand entry options
• Traditional open entrance with non-operating lampposts
• Modern-style covered glass canopy option
• Colorful graphics and multiple signs for customization

With the canopy installed, each entrance measures approximately 3-9/16 x 1-9/16 x 1-5/16" (9 x 3.9 x 3.3cm). Installing the below-ground stairwell requires an opening approximately 1-3/8" (3.4cm) deep. The different entry and appearance options allow the two models to be configured differently, helping create variety when more than one subway access point is used in the same city scene.

Expand Your Walthers Cornerstone City Scene

The Subway Entrance fits naturally among Walthers Cornerstone commercial and city buildings, where it can be positioned near stores, offices, hotels, and other downtown structures. Placing entrances at different locations along a street can suggest an underground transit line continuing beneath the modeled city.

Additional HO scale structures for expanding the surrounding neighborhood can be found in the HO Scale Walthers Cornerstone buildings collection. Smaller components for sidewalks, streets, and developed urban areas can also be found in Walthers Cornerstone accessories and details.
