Looks cool Chris. I can see a big candy store filled with kids in the storefront on the bottom just like the one in Willy Wonka and an apartment scene up top. Keep us posted.
And while your at it cut a piece out of the table it is sitting on, cause that makes great looking hardwood floors for the store.

What a cool building, Chris. Is that from DPM? Is it one of those Magnusen (Spelling?) resin kits?
I know you'll do a bang-up job...you always do.

Good start Chris, me likes it!
Idea for financing the interior .... Charge the traction company for allowing them to attach their catenery support cables from your walls 
btw, do LPB's actually eat plastic steaks?
Be sure to let me know how you eventually paint the brickwork (I have a helluva job trying to avoid paint smears on the window lintels etc).

Hello Errol, Good to see you back on again Apparently rumors of your demise were ill founded. 
For those of you that don't know, Errol is in charge of The Robber Barron's European operations!

Yes indeed it`s great to hear from that old kettlestack, o\er I meant old friend ERROL. 
I hope to be very careful painting the wood Errol, not my favorite thing painting but I like the water colours I used on the print shop..
Going to get started this weekend.
Do not be a stranger, friend, we missed ya.
