Paddyb98 Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 Hello all, story time! After receiving the Cargo Railway set from eBay, I felt it deserved a great place to stay. Something better than the dusty old 9v rails it ways on. Something Big. Something station-like! A few weeks later, I built a new station for the Southern Basement Railroad. And then I took it apart and rebuilt it. And then I rebuilt it again. And again. I rebuilt it about 5 times, to be exact.... Inspiration from this came from various posts on Eurobricks. I hope you guys enjoy. It's a beautiful day in South Basement. As a train pulls into the station, many exciting things are going on. This is an ariel shot of the station. Over here we see Dave hard at work loading the cargo. The highlight of the station is the new fountain. Here's a better view of the fountain. Here we see a view of both tracks. The platform side is used constantly, but the other side was there previously and isn't used. The far track only is only used to hold the occasional freight car like this one. Near the end of the far track is part of a meandering stream. I would think that water is really contaminated from being near diesel trains, but that isn't stopping this young fellow. Here are a few final shots of the station. Ans finally, South Basement's finest are ever vigilant. Flickr link: I hope you all enjoyed. As always, comments, questions, and flames are welcomed and encouraged. Quote
Hey Joe Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 Hey! Southern Basement, great name! Will it ever link up to Northern Patio across Bathtub Gulch? Seriously though, it's a nice station. Security detail is heavily armed, expecting trouble? Thanks, Joe Quote
Paddyb98 Posted June 9, 2013 Author Posted June 9, 2013 Thanks Joe, the praise is always appreciated. As for the security, let's just say those lego city criminals won't be messing with the railroad anymore... Quote
timmyc1983 Posted June 9, 2013 Posted June 9, 2013 Fantastic station and a great home for your Cargo Railway!! There seems to be a hive of activity at the station which is cool and I love the 'meandering stream' and abandoned track, great touches!! Happy building Quote
lightningtiger Posted June 9, 2013 Posted June 9, 2013 Nice work 'Paddyb98', I wonder if it links up with the Northern Basement line ? Brick On 'Paddyb98' ! Quote
