To All,

I posted to Brickshelf here last night, but I did not get a chance to write
about it.

I took some pictures of the station in progress, it is almost done, I have
to finish the final panel for the canopy and the other side of the pick up
area. I know I am going bonkers because I felt like building a small shop,
snack bar, etc. on the other side. Oh boy! : ) Good thing I remembered the
other side had the main train tracks near it!

Anyway, onto the pictures:

2) Here is the train track side, as you can tell, Tony did an excellent job
on the roof.

It looks good.

3) Here is the GT engine, I am unsure if I will get the stickers for it or
not. I might pick them up at GATS. : )

Neato.

4) Here is the lobby, complete with the train logo, among some other
interior shots.

By george, that is a lot of tiles.  Either very cool, or slightly overwelming.
I look forward to seeing in person.  One question though, the green stripe, is
that going away?  Otherwise I think it looks a little out of place.

Here are the first few pics of the canopy, I had a hard time trying to get
something I wanted.

Here are some updated pics of the canopy.

Canopy looks good.  I was wondering why we had a double road out in front of
the station, now I know, and I approve, good thinking.


The canopy is not that sturdy, I think it is fine sitting in a fixed
position, but I am worried about transporting it. Oh well, we shall see.

Anyway, LMKWYT!
