The main index can be found here: (URL) overall shot is here: (URL) started out trying for an Art-Deco look, but I kept slapping on my favorite strange piece, and now it doesn't really (...)

          Re: Monorail/Train Transit Terminal —Brad Hamilton
      That building looks pretty neat. I only recently started building 4-sided buildings myself. Almost all of my prior stuff was only 6 or 8 studs deep with no back! I took a major step forward with my natural history museum. I think it is at least 20 (...) (23 years ago, 5-Feb-01, to lugnet.trains)
    
         Re: Monorail/Train Transit Terminal —Brad Hamilton
      Ah - I see that you are right. Unfortunately, I bought this set from someone else, who bought it from yet another person. It was that third person that applied the sticker impromperly. I'm afraid to change it now given that its almost 10 years old! (...) (23 years ago, 4-Feb-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.town, lugnet.trains)

      (...) Yea i wouldn't even think about pulling a 10 year sticker off it would be a goner for sure.I like the design however.I at one time built a building for my monorail trains to "park at night or to get repaired".I used my switch track for a lead (...)

         Re: Monorail/Train Transit Terminal —Brad Hamilton
      I noticed that a portion of the sticker was off the piece, so I tried to gently pull that part up. Luckily, it came right up without any damage whatsoever. Even better, it left almost all of the discoloration and dirt on the brick rather than the (...) (23 years ago, 4-Feb-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.town, lugnet.trains)

      (...) I've been pretty impressed by LEGO stickers. They are made of a pretty rugged paper and I have always found that if a sticker was stuck on well (if not in quite the right position), that you can pretty much always lift it and re-apply it (...)

         Re: Monorail/Train Transit Terminal —Brad Hamilton
     I like the 4-sided building with an open-up roof because it allows for more realistic architecture. However, I think that I will eventually revert back to my classic 3-sided "shell" or "facade" architecture. This is because I have my layout in a (...) (23 years ago, 5-Feb-01, to lugnet.town)
