Mid‑Century Motel Entrance Canopy and Facade (1:87 HO) Capture the look of 1960s roadside lodging with this HO scale folded‑plate canopy and facade module. The model features a prominent V‑shaped canopy formed by two triangular plates meeting at an apex, a glazed entrance vestibule beneath the canopy, repeating rectangular bays, and a low parapet. The attached pavement and curb preserve canopy clearance and let you place the piece directly on a layout roadbed or diorama base. This download contains one master STL scaled to 1:87 (HO). The canopy is modeled with robust plate thickness for reliable printing at HO; windows are represented as flat glazed panels for easy post‑print glazing. Sign areas visible in the photographic reference were obscured and left blank here—add your own signage or decals to match your era. Printing suggestions: orient the pavement plane on the bed, use supports under the canopy overhang and vestibule, and print resin for the finest folded‑plate detail. For filament: 0.1–0.2 mm layers and slightly increased wall thickness on the canopy are recommended. Ideal for model railroading, dioramas, photography props, and display models—this modular facade tiles cleanly if you need a longer frontage. Conversion instructions included in the product notes for other scales.

Available railroad scales: Z (1:220), N (1:160), HO (1:87.1), S (1:64), O (1:48)
