I can't believe I have never thought to print things for model train setups..... My Grandpa is about to gain a lot for his track haha

That's awesome, please share what you make :) If you print the walls flat for manual assembly like a kit and without a raft, it might even be efficient. Printing vertically I ended up wasting a lot of filament on supports and infill (even though it's hollow, the walls still have some thickness to them), but I am bad at glueing and feel like I wouldn't have been able to achieve the same level of detail with manual assembly :D
