It looks good, but I wish your pictures were bigger because I can barely see anything.

Looks promising! What I dont like is the use of Technikbeams for stairs and Control/Cash Cabin. From my point of view a creator style build of those areas would fit much better.

I knew it! Same here. it turned out not as i hoped it be. and i will change the cabin. (stairs i will think about) but lack of "normal" bricks is the issue. i will change it. thnx for the comment!

Update.

a little change of the staircases

i change the look of the staircases a little. i cover the holes with dark blue tiles.

i have to order the tiles for the remaining holes, but it looks better then the holes exposed.

Also the beginning of the fences are done now with the walk through for buying the tickets....

(cashcabin will be changed, but that parts i have to order)

Thank you for giving us these updates.

Nice! But why are the steps white? Most of the time they are in steel, wouldn't grey be a better color? Keep up the good work, this must already have cost to a fortune!

Awesome! Are those lights going to flash like on the real thing? Because that would be even more awesome.

they will be controlled by a led chaser/ running sequencer and yes, they will be flashing including strobelights and lights on model. Still working on it

As the Icing on the cake, you definetely need to put a small ultrasonic smoke generator in it!

Haha! I seriously thought about that. But smoke generators are expensive..:)

[doggo]

I'm sure a smoke generator would cost much less than this amazing creation.

Cheapest ones at Amazon are around five euro :)

to bad. the project failed..

I borrowed the shrinking machine from the movie :"Honey, i shrunk the kids". but that technology was too old and i could not hook up the usb connecton to my computer to make it work...so sad :)

Kidding....
