silk purse / sows ear as it were

[Gary S]

Very nicely done. About my only regret of having narrowed my layout theme down to the Houston area/modern shoebox era is that it precludes me from working on all the other really great older structures. Still, I can buy cheapie "sow's ears" rollingstock and modify them to be "silk purses".

Nice job on the building, Terry, and the base looks good too.
