Sorry, I didn't mean to sound critical...I did compliment the layout and its progress.
But if this isn't a German depot, I don't know what is....

Das habe ich auch gesehen. Sehr deutsch. Amerikanische Bahnhöfe haben normalerweise nicht solche Fensterläden.

Lol Dr. Hotballs, you don't know how funny this is, but your German is actually better than mine. My compliments.
Born and raised in Prague, not Germany, but your window observation is right on. Solche Fensterlaeden are just unAmerican, I don't care how many teutonic immigrants came to the Dutch country :D
But it's still a wonderful model railroad mind you...seriously.

Sorry Otto, I didn't mean to have it come off that I was upset or anything.  I just never really paid much attention to architecture  :D :D

It looks like a station, and in real life there is an old station in that spot (now an insurance company) so I set it there.  I've had that building since I can remember having a layout.  It's at least 30 years old  :o

In case you're wondering what Dr Hotballs said, like I was, here is what an online translator came up with :

I have also seen. Very German. American stations usually do not have such window shutters.

With a name like Vollmer, it has to be perfect German.  :trollface: Look at all the kits he manufactures!! :D

So after seeing this picture last night while doing some internet railfanning

http://www.railpictures.net/photo/520626/

I got some motivation to do a little work on that area of my layout.  Here is what I got with a couple minutes of cutting and shaping foam board, and staging some trains and the only building I have that looks like a station.

@Ed Kapuscinski told me about these killer printed piers. Amazing! I may do this for tunnel portals on my layout.

Here's a Clerihew about Ed. K.

Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
But mention his law
and you've pulled your last straw!

Alternate version:
Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
He asks excitedly "Did you say Ménage à Trois?"
No, I said "Ed's Law."
