(...) Thanks! I was thinking of using corrogated yellow brick, because I have a pile from two 4559's I got many years ago, but I couldn't find enough of it.

I like it, Calum. Nice use of space and fantastic interior detailing. A small suggestion would be to incorporate a cornice or perhaps some ornamental pieces to add texture to the side of the building. Thanks for sharing. Nicely done. Build well, (...)

Hi folks, A long time ago, I built a horrible blue building with the goal of spanning a piece of Lego track. I couldn't finish it, and by the time rtlToronto/train2 rolled around, it was nothing but a big empty foundation and structure: (URL) the (...)
