(...) John, Such a fun MOC. Now I'm sitting at my desk with the Chitty-Chitty-Bang-Bang song running through my head. Maybe this should be cross-posted to .Disney? Was this a Disney movie?

Very nice! I like how you compressed a fairly complex building down to one baseplate and still managed to preserve the style of the building.
