Hi Greg, Thanks, I am glad you like it. I have been using the castle doors for awhile now, I think they give the stations a "rustic" look. I haven't quite done the interior yet. I have 9 stations built, and two complete interiors, and just don't (...) (23 years ago, 20-Jun-01, to lugnet.town)

(...) Tom, I LOVE this station. It reminds me of one of my first, and therefore favorite sets, Engine Co. #9. I dig your use of castle doos and all the other little details. When are we going to get interior pics? GREG~ (23 years ago, 19-Jun-01, to lugnet.town)

Thanks for the kind words. But I can only take credit for the foreground buildings pictured. The layout as a whole was done by our club, WAMALUG, for a recent train show. If you want more information on the layout (and more pics) check out this (...) (23 years ago, 19-Jun-01, to lugnet.town)
