A diorama of Shiramaru Station, which has been introduced in various railway magazines as one of Tokyo's unexplored stations.
The station is built on the slope of a mountain, so there are many hills in the area, and the platform is integrated with several houses, giving it a unique appearance. The waiting room and ticket office have now been rebuilt.
The terrain is cinnabar veneer and polyurethane foam. The railway equipment such as signals and level crossings are made of 0.4-0.5 mm copper wire soldered together. The buildings are made of 1 mm thick sheet metal reinforced with 5 mm square bars.
The Braille blocks are made of copper tape for stained glass, with about 1,000 dots hammered with an iron brush and smeared paint poured over them to make the embossing appear.
The slightly curved track can be made to curve naturally by making a 2mm cut in the roadbed of the straight track with nippers.
Various signs are produced on a computer.
