......g ------ N Scale Stairs, Walkway & Railings ---
=========================================
You can find all the files to 3D print this object and others on my thingiverse.come account ( HERE ).
Here are some stairs, walkway, railings and braces that you can use outside of a structure or wherever. Cut any of the parts as needed to fit your needs or print more and make the stairs, walkway or railings longer.
I designed a two story wall to try out the pieces.
The stairs on the left were practice to see how they would turnout and the ones to the right of them had been cut into two pieces at this point for use on the building wall.

I'm happy enough with the wall that I'll eventually make three more walls (all different) to go with it so that there will be a complete building.
Printing the wall flat vs. upright caused more cleanup for excess filament deposits inside the window. I used the same single window in the pump house and it printed with less cleanup when the wall was printed vertical. I did a vertical print with much better results. Check the last picture below.
I painted the pieces prior to assembly. I tried to not paint where the walkway glues on but I glued the stairs to the side of the painted building with no problems so painting everything probably doesn't hurt. I'm still new to using CA (super glue).

The building is a lot smaller that what you are seeing if you are viewing this on a computer monitor. I'm happy with the detail.

Doing the print with the wall vertical the windows printed really nice. The picture above is fresh out of the printer with no cleanup. I did then find an error on my part to the right of one of the upper doors and to the left of the top left window. I fixed that but didn't print another wall to check it out. Let me know if you find it is still a problem.
