Here is a new project of mine. Something I have had my eyes on for some time, ever since it was moved to make room for a ferry terminal.

Frihavnen Staion:


Here is how far I got so far:


Today it's places in a new devolved area with residential and offices and works as a cafe.

Still a lot to do on this one, but it's starting to take shape.

Hi Vester,
Good work and choice of building. Looks like it is pretty close to the real thing. also, it should be very versatile in terms of usability ingame.
IRL I pass by this area often, and I like that this building is being preserved in the midst of all those new (some of them soulless) buildings there. If its being preserved IRL, then why not in SC4 too  ;)

Looking great already, Arne! The recreation looks really good and I'm looking forward to another freight station  :D

I am glad you like my work.

Here is an update:

The stair case is in place.







As you can see, I am trying out different textures for the walls.

Wow looks absolutely superb Arne.

Considering what you first showed me and now we have this - it looks amazing.
Really looking forward to having this in my plugins  :thumbsup:

edit:
Really like the texturing on the stairs, very nice detailing indeed.

Here is a small command post by the same architect as both Frihavnens Station and Østerport Station (Eastgate): Heinrich Wenck.
As you can see he has a long list of stations on his c.v.


Command post at Klampenborg Station.

Does that count ? There is a maintenance center in the corner.
Might need to do an update of it for the new shorter trains.

Enjoy your bat and nice attention to detail.. I'd forgotten in our (US) old rail stations (hardly see one anymore.. they are handled in private transfers now as they rarely are moved to trucks first as they used to be) that the doors were always GREEN.. especially all freight doors.. brought back memories that are over 50 years old. :) That station could just as easily be spotted repeatedly in Smalltown USA along the many miles of rails. In the US rail stations would also frequently be built "on a pattern" so you'd see the same station many times with little more changed than the station's name.
  Almost all the numerous stations were wooden rather than brick.. you'd see a brick one sometimes near larger, older towns.

I really like your work, which is awesome. Very good BAT, what we can find in north of France too.
I wait for the lotting but it seems to be excellent   ;)

This is the end, hold your breath and count to ten, feel the earth move, and then...

Well the station was turned over to TheTeaCat, but he had a bike crash.

Hope soon to get this one out.


Have added some stairs to it.
