(...) One can never have enough 1x2 plates :-) The tiles are supported on the outside edge, behind the part that sticks out on the curve. Then they're pushed into the plates on the inside corner so that they stack at one end. They're not actually (...) (21 years ago, 10-Feb-05, to lugnet.town, FTX)

(...) The eventual aim was to incorporate this one and a mirror image one as part of a station entrance, along with a ramp for disabled passengers (At shows I have a minifigure in a wheelchair on the platform, with a helpful porter!)
