(...) Agreed. I like it a lot. I think I will copy it (if you don't object). My club (LUCNY) layout needs something just like this next to our train station. Since I copied the train staion from a Michlug member's design, it seems appropriate to (...) (22 years ago, 3-May-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.org.us.lucny)

(...) My design certainly wasn't. Putting the Breezeway windows sideways like that was something I came up with on my own looking through Railroad Modeler. Checking now, I see a few Art Deco details on baseplate.com, but nothing like this... Peter (22 years ago, 2-May-03, to lugnet.org.us.lucny)
