The construction of the depot is well under way.
I have a few questions on the interior.
Do you have any idea on how the internal walls were finished.
White paint?
Was the wooden floor in the ticket office noticeably pink.
Was the only door into the ticket office from the platform
No I missed the Tim Fleck Station CD. Until recently I had chosen to
get the dialy digest. It wasn't very satisfactory.
