Addington was/is a stalled N-gauge layout to Finescale standards depicting a small suburban terminus in the armpit of outer South-East London.

Final Shots
The first impressionistic versions of the station structures are seen in earlier photographs, and a quiet morning yielded a reasonable improvement.
The station building and platform bridge are based on the post-1900 rebuild of Caterham, built with a combination of resin and FDM 3D printing models of my own design, and styrene, card and wood scratchbuilding.
Though I sketched the original buildings in red brick, I think yellow bricks are more suitable for this station in outer London Suburbia, with more vivid red brick used in the lintels.
A Quick Summary of Electrical and Mechanical Works
I replaced a dud servo, re-set the servo travels and fiddled with general stiffness which is still a problem. I moved the switches to a recessed switch-panel, added terminator blocks for the DCC wiring and printed and assembled a single-unit power supply inside the baseboard for the lights, servos and DCC system:
Though it may look like a profusion of switches for such a small layout, the first is a DPDT to control the entry crossover, the second is a SPST to control the platform entry turnout, and the other three are for signals. The red pushbutton has a purpose to be determined – maybe a sound effect or an uncoupling servo?
