Congratulations, Mark! You have created a very pleasing and innovative MOC
here! Well done! Among your original techniques I noticed and enjoyed the most
is your method of compression.
I know that when constructing large buildings in the minilands, TLC will start
off with 1:20 on the ground level, but switch to MF scale on successive floors.
You appear to have completely compressed the station to HO scale (about 1/2 MF
scale), and yet make it work for MF scale! So, at the same time the model can
appear compressed or uncompressed, depending upon the presence of MFs. Very
creative:-)
