Thanks for the kind words! (Pardon the pun) I actually did all of those.
Sorry we didn't get some close-ups of the boat dealership. It had some nice
touches, I thought.
Large (5 stud tall) anchor on the roof next to the sign; inside: a deal
table, a break area, and a merchandise display.
The word train was indeed part of the Conjunction Junction (see:

For the record, I tried to capture the cartoonish [1] look of the cars; and
the station (with switchman) is as close as I could get to the original.
The Schoolhouse Rock videos are still available, btw, as are the CDs. Amazon
says DVD will be available soon, as well.

You are only wrong in that there is a "little bit." As always, Linus and
Sally are waiting in the pumpkin patch for the Great Pumpkin, who, thanks to
a cam gear, and a
motor taking power from the mainline, popped up and down every 10-15 seconds
or so. And yes, the small pumpkins are pen parts, but not basketballs. They
are
actual pumpkins with spiders and spider webs on them. LEGOLAND, CA sells
them in bulk at a kiosk. They come in other cool colors too.

'Cartoonish,' that describes the look of the cars. Get it?" [2]
