Although this building is new to the net, I actually began building it last year after a huge sale of 4561s from Walmart. The building took all of the 1x2x3 trans light blue thin wall elements from over 40 sets (I've forgotten how many came in each set). Suffice to say a long time in the making.... http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=6920 It is kind of reminiscent of one of the WTC towers, but that is purely coincidental. In my flurry of creating buildings, I just would complete the shell and move on to another (or more realistically-- start a building, and while waiting for parts, start another, etc).

I still think that it would be neat if every LTC had a Spamcake Diner on its layout! -John

Say you went to display in town B... Well if someone lives there that isn't actully a (...) (23 years ago, 21-Sep-01, to lugnet.trains.org)

		Re: New Building (light gray)
Looks nice. The see-through nature of the thin-walls make it seem a little too "empty" though. I know how you feel about exteriors coming before interiors, but you might want to try doing a little something, perhaps in the lobby, just to make it (...)
