Awesome! I've been waiting to see the rest of the pictures. Great job! I like the sliding doors, cool idea. Lots of detail all over the place.

Eric, Once again, very nice. I was looking at the directions for making the Hondekop train to figure out how you made the "doors", but the directions do not reveal how you made the door look like two slinding doors. How did you split the window ? Is (...) (25 years ago, 13-Aug-99, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)

Hi Eric, Very nice site. I really liked all the detail you put into the train station. The trash spilled on the ground was very realistic. And I loved your trees. The whole thing was very creative. Thanks for sharing it with us, Adam (...) (25 years ago, 13-Aug-99, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)

(...) Ditto to that! Plus, I'm really loving that shunting locomotor: (URL) don't know what the real thing looks like, but that is certainly a unique looking unit. Very tasty! --Todd (25 years ago, 13-Aug-99, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)

Thanks for the reply. I remebered seeing that technique on your gray train station "study" as I think you called it. That is why I thought you did the same thing on the door.

As someone who likes attention to detail, I have to agree. I've spent about an hour looking at the details in this diorama. I especially like your attention to the window treatments. The use of lamp posts in a new way is also very interesting. And I (...) (25 years ago, 18-Aug-99, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)
