That was me, with my version of the Oakham, Rutland (UK) signal box:

I've just about acquired enough dark grey concaves to put proper gables
above the windows of this station too:

But it's insane how hard it is to get the bricks! The opinions pages on the
Lego site are full of comments of people wanting a decent supply of roof
bricks in realistic colours, but so far - zip.
If anyone reads that opinions page, where are the roof bricks? Where are
the steam engine drivers? People in the UK are paying big wads of cash for
tours of Legoland largely to get their hands on a few rare bricks!
