Stunning!

Brilliant, I really like that, looks like it left the factory, I couldn't see the seam until I zoomed in. What a fantastic finish, I wonder, If you had cut the stations along the mortar lines in the brick work the seam would be even less visible? - but even so it is damn good!
*edit* I have to say what a masterpiece the tower is in the middle, fantastic!

Absolutely stunning! Chrisjo, how much do you charge to make one and ship it to Canada?
RE: Sir Topham Hatt has had the builders in.... - MuddyPoppins - 03-04-2015
Yes how much?

It'll be much easier and a bit better the second time. When that happens I'll let you know and we'll see if you're still interested. I doubt it would make any sense to go out and buy them specially, though they're common enough on Ebay.
One of the problems I had was deciding which two to use, you'd be surprised how much variation there is in the brickwork colour between one and the next.
Rockinator was cheeky enough to ask first, Muddy's next. Probably not much point extending the waiting list beyond two at the moment (if you're serious).

I'm not serious Chrisjo, although you could get a good business going...

Hmmmm, although not as easily found, Tidmouth Station could also be a candidate for a remodeled addition. I do like the red brick of Ffarquhar station better though.

It's just... How hard would it be to find three of that station? (2 for the actual mod 1 to keep normal)
RE: Sir Topham Hatt has had the builders in.... - Super - 03-04-2015
I don't think I have ever seen these on US Ebay (except I sold one there a bit ago) however I do see a lot in the Japan Auctions.

So it's a plarail station? That explains the superior amount of detail.
