Oooh, Faller Car System. I'm jealous!
Heck, layout. I'm jealous.
I don't even own a single piece of rollingstock.

I liked the triplicate signs and the "next station" signs. All signs should have louvers on them.

Dunno the story behind them, but there are/were some handmade Tangaras in Casula Hobbies store in Liverpool. I assume they're not for sale and are one-off models, but I have no real clue.

I thought it would be a pain trying to stick anything to used wet and dry paper.
How did you make the station name and nightsafe line? I have no idea how to print things to HO scale on a computer.

Here's a QR CityTrain EMU in Lego. It's a design, at least, there're no photos of the actual item, just CG images. Nice, though!

It's been ages since I've worked on this thing. I've kind of given up locating opening/closing dates for the places that still don't have them.
