Istanbul has better colours :P and a fancier roof.

Very nice station.

Nice work, but I have to say, Tim, that these kinds of shrouded cars scream
to be built in 8 wide.

But then I’d lose the fun of squeezing the shrouds in as much as possible.

Check out GMLTCer Steve Demlow’s 8 wide version:

I’ve admired that one before. I love the window arches and rivets on it. Didn’t
realise it was the same model (or similar anyway... the faces are slightly
different)

Don’t be constrained by self-constraint;-)

While I do love building small and trying to squeeze as much detail into a small
space it’s not entirely self-constraint. Often I design things with the idea of
possibly using them in a future diorama. Given my lack of space and brick going
8-wide would make it impossible for me to fit in all the life I would like to.
This 80x80 diorama
would only have just over half the space if I was basing it around eight-wide
scale.
