siberianmo, I like your Union Station. I am getting excited now as when I get to that section of my layout my Union Station will be above the rails (Foam), with a street scene. It will be similiar to what they do in Chicago where the train goes underneath the station, and passengers go up a flight of stairs to get to street level, and catch a bus or visit the city. I for one am modeling an era (1970s) when Amtrak was just starting out. The only problem is I keep kicking around the idea of Amtrak as I already have 4 Milwaukee Road Heavy Weights, 3 CNW Bilevels, and am planning on more Milwaukee Road heavy weights for my excursion train (Steam Engine). If I could add more tracks, I for surley would as I do sometimes regret selling all my Amtrak stuff. It seems once I sell it 6months later I find or get something else thats amtrak I like, and end up doing the same thing. For me its setting my limits on what I can and cannot have on my layout and stored away, as I am limited on space. I have been seriously looking at trying to make a track to hide the darn Burlington Zephyr I got really cheap (Impulse buy and price I couldnt say no to). So to shorten the story, if I had room I add a fourth railroad to my Union Station but due to trackage restrictions I can only have 2 major railroads that own platforms (CNW, and Milwaukee Road), with a possible 1 track platform for my Zephyr.
