I am working on my large terminus station ready for TVLF2000.

However, I have a construction crew of around 100 minifigs who are currently
waiting around doing nothing as the pre-fabricated parts that are required to
finish the station have not arrived due to closure of the production plant.

If anyone has any light grey flat platform plates (only 2 needed to complete
stage 2 of the project, though this meant stripping the platforms from my
Metrostation Plus, so more welcome), or large number of large grey tiles, I
could offer huge sums of money or interesting trades.

Second I need some tall black columns, 2x2 round as used in 6097 night lords
castle. These are used as supports for the roof.

Sorry to post a WTT/WTB notice here, but hoping my direct plea to the UK lego
community and fellow festers will get heard better than it did in
lugnet/marketplace.

BTW, the station is now huge, occupying 6 48 stud base plates, 2 base plates
are the terminus building (which is extended and modified since Reddifest),
and 4 are used as foundation for the platforms which themselves have another 4
baseplates forming the arched roof. Its built as 3 2-plate sections to enable
transport.

I also ordered 500 thin wall windows from lego direct, via Tony Priestman,
that will be used for a modern glass wall effect down the length of the outer
platforms.

The terminus will form one side of Metro Plaza. I ordered a load more windows
to build an office block on another side.
Anyone fancing bringing some more large building MOCS to complete the plaza?

regards
lawrence

If you mena the ones that are used in harbour sets, then i have 2 middle
sections ANd 2 slope sections that i am willing to trade or sell. ~I also have
a bunch of grey peices i don't need send me an e:mail and let me know if
you're interested.

regards
