In the February 2015 issue of Model Railroader magazine, page 33, there is reference to a roll up loading door that was added to the office building. Can anyone advise where one might obtain this door?

Milne,

[#welcome] To The Forums.

I did not look at the Mag. so I don’t know if these are the one’s. Walther’s has warehouse roll-up doors made by ME. The link does not show a pic’, but it’s a start:

Thats a N scale door, not offered in HO. The building in the article is HO. They have a HO Overhead Door but it is a different style.

The door could be from a different Walthers kit, or it could be made from an Evergreen Styrene Metal Siding Sheet, or could be a pdf download from a company like Clever Models printed on cardstock or paper, or ? Whatever works.

I goofed! I see the OP is asking about N Scale doors. However my statement of different options stand.
