You know, Steve, I looked for a long time at that original vintage photo of Mr. Rose's fine little store. Indeed it seems that he was doing his darnedest to be all things to all people. But there was one thing that I, as a "how things work" kind of guy, came back to study over and over ...
... and now I look at it again on your model, and it looks just like the prototype building ... it's ...
... That "freight door!"
I can't for the life of me figure out where that door can go except right where it is! The overhead track is barely longer than the door. How on earth does that door open wide enough for anything wider than a year's worth of Model Railroader issues to pass through?
Now, Mr. Rose's side door aside, you are doing a fine job on this building ... I never expected anything less!
