That is a wonderful station....I hope you can get it done soon.
I know something like that had to cost some dollars....it is a real beaut.
I like the "indoors" concept of the station, kind of like a station in a large
metropolitan area.
I think you hit the standard of what a large-scale train station should look
like. Personally, I don't see anything wrong with it....
