MOC: Golden Spike Ceremony Set on Lego Ideas

[jackdude101]

I'd like your input on this set I made recently:

https://ideas.lego.com/projects/95531

It's based on a very famous event in US history in 1869, when the rail networks of the East and West coasts were symbolically connected for the first time with the driving of a final golden railroad spike with a silver hammer. To the best of my knowledge, this would be the first non-fictional Wild West Lego train set. The 150th anniversary of this event is only a few years away, so I figure now is as good a time as ever for Lego to release something like this.
