AirborneAFOL Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 (edited) Not fully finished, but wife is due with twins (Lord help me...) any day now, so not sure when I may get a chance to polish it up. MOD of 60050, with some heavy modifications inspired by the scores of amazing builds I've been lurking in this forum.

THERIZE Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 That architecture tho! I love those things next to the front stairs. Quote
xboxtravis7992 Posted September 21, 2015 Posted September 21, 2015 Nice. It looks like you have incorporated the shops from the newest station set into a classier build. Quote
dr_spock Posted September 21, 2015 Posted September 21, 2015 Good work. Signage, security cam, amenitities. Twins? Get all the sleep you can now. Quote
cgarison Posted September 21, 2015 Posted September 21, 2015 Very, very nice build. The styling is really nice and would fit into any layout on either side of the pond. Great Job! Quote
AirborneAFOL Posted September 23, 2015 Author Posted September 23, 2015 Appreciate the feedback. Yes, lots of refinement yet to be done - I only build in "real brick" (no LDD tools) and tend to "make it up as I go". Tried to incorporate the look and some key components of the 60050 Train Station (as xboxtravis noted), while enhancing it into a more "modular/expert" calibre. Some refinements I'm planning once I can have some more build-time... 1. Tweaking the pillars in front at the corners of the stairs - I like the style / colors, but think they need to be just 1-2 bricks shorter, or taller. 2. The white arch over the "City Station" entry signage needs some refinement to give it some better aesthetic decor appeal. 3. Landscaping out the backside (tiling/foilage/cargo accessories/etc). 4. Some decorative touches to the rear platform access (above the turnstyles). 5. Tower doesn't quite look as sleek as I'd prefer - need to make some adjustments there so its more uniform on all-4 sides. I'd certainly appreciate any other suggestions! I'm a city-theme builder dabbling into trains (unlike many guys here who seem to be train-afficianados dabbling into Lego), so I'm frankly pretty clueless about "key components" train structures would typically have.
