Hey John, This looks really nice. It preserves all of the key features of the original, but in addition to freeing up space it will also free up a lot of elements (all those windows, railings, blue slopes, etc) for future projects. Oh, btw, I really (...) (22 years ago, 19-Nov-02, to lugnet.build.arch, lugnet.trains.org, lugnet.town)
