(...) (because it struck me first) is that you did the overpass as *ramped* instead of using stairs. I'm not sure I've seen that done before. Bravo! So is that a 500 AUD station then or what? (23 years ago, 6-Oct-01, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.town, lugnet.build.arch)

(...) Hmmm. Now there's an idea! (light bulb flashes on...). Actually such trains do exist (or have in the past anyway - not sure if any still do), mostly in hard-to-get-at places like mountain passes, etc. ROSCO (23 years ago, 6-Oct-01, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.town, lugnet.build.arch)

(...) Will this be known as 'Fire Station' ? Nice use of the 8 x 8 grille plates vertically on the walkways. What about a Fire Train, that only services fires adjacent to railway lines ? (23 years ago, 6-Oct-01, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.town, lugnet.build.arch)
