Although vastly more attractive and architecturally-aware than
several previous train stations, this station is still on the expensive side

This is exactly what’s holding me back from purchasing this set. The RC
rails are useless to me right now and the price per piece is just too high
compared to some of the other great sets out right now. I’ll probably buy a
couple more Cafe Corner sets and a few of the market street sets and build my
own station. :-) On the flip side, this might be a nice set for someone
getting into Lego trains. It would help if the price was slightly lower.
IMHO.

Right - it seems to be aimed at new-to-the-scene RC train folks, to expand their
stuff, while still a bit attractive to 9v powered railers.
Seems incomplete to have just the facade of a roof instead of a fully sloped
one. What’s with the red mug on the roof?
