[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by SpaceMouse</i> <br /><br />For my Hogwarts section of my layout, I am planning a Kings Cross station representation. I have about 30"x 100" that I planned on using for the station, a passenger yard and truck and LCL freight, plus engine service facilities. <br /> <br />The problem is Kings Cross is so huge it would take the entire space and maybe more. <br /> <br />How would I represent and keep the flavor, yet get it on my layout? I'm looking for strategies as well as suggestions. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />You could always build a compressed version about one third or one half the size of the real one and place it against a mirror to make the station look like it is larger. <br />This has been illustrated in several articles in the past few years to make the layout seem larger and more complete. <br />
