This two-story guard/lookout tower STL is modeled from a photographed small modular tower and optimized for HO 1:87 dioramas and model railroad layouts. Key visible features preserved: rectilinear assembled-panel exterior, recessed plinth panels on the lower floor, a continuous mid-level balcony and railing, multiple rectangular mullioned windows, a pitched hipped roof with a central ridge, and an external straight-run metal stair on the front-left. The download contains one master STL scaled to 1:87 (HO) and a brief scale-conversion guide so you can uniformly resize the model for other scales. The model intentionally avoids fine ornamental millwork and site clutter, favoring clean, printable geometry that is easy to paint and weather. Note: the photographic source had a large occlusion on the left-front; left-side details were not verifiable and the model uses conservative symmetry where safe. Recommended uses: railway sidings, depot outbuildings, industrial yards, small diorama vignettes. Print tips: use supports beneath the stair and roof overhang, or print roof separately for easier painting.
Available railroad scales: Z (1:220), N (1:160), HO (1:87.1), S (1:64), O (1:48)
