(...) Perhaps the structure builders are happy you've stayed away - your chateau is hard to compete with! Very nice - I love the detail and the clean symmetry. I always like to see pictures of structures in the plastic, as opposed to ray-traced. (24 years ago, 31-Dec-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build, lugnet.build.arch, lugnet.trains.org)
