CaptOblivious Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Was poking around the webpages of clubs in Colorado Springs (where I'll be moving in just a couple of weeks), and found this monstrosity: A prison made from the Kato elevated station. It pains me to see shinkansen facilities treated in this way, oh…that said, pretty creative use of what in reality is very a very stark, prison-like structure! http://www.ppngineers.org/operations/layouts/mtl2.php?slide=3 Link to comment

The_Ghan Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Yeah Cap'n, I hear the crime rate is pretty bad in the States. Even N-scale figures are breaking the law! Cheers The_Ghan Link to comment

bikkuri bahn Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 There is a federal facility in Florence (happens to be on D&RGW's Royal Gorge route) which happens to house many white collar felons, it's in the same area of Colorado as Colorado Springs. Nice modeler's license. 1 Link to comment
quinntopia Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 That is a pretty ingenious use of the station! I have to admit, I like the colors and how it all comes together a lot! Really nice work! Link to comment
