That's a great town you got there.
Do you light them too or just have them out on display.

update...11-21-2018...

here's a Train Station in the "Pack-O-Fun" size...note...i can't take credit for the basic design nor can i post the copyrighted picture of the inspiration station...i did borrow heavily from it but had to modify some of the details to change the "war games piece" to make it a traditional looking putz...i'll let the photos and the pattern tell the story...
