Thanks a lot for your praise. It's really appreciated. Feels like taking a warm shower in an empty world . There are zoomable pictures at my Flickr page: click me.

I believe at this point I owe you a pint or two ( at the very least).

No, you don't, but you're welcone! I hope one day we forum people will have an opportunity to meet each other. This would be something ...

Not only the sound of the cleaning lady coming up the steps, but didn't you also smell the wax floor polish, and the last guy out of the room should have turned out the lights.

Brilliant assembly of extremely fine work Volker.

Hi,

thanks for your nice words. I think I can call this model done. I added some books and drawings to the drawing office's desks and may add some pencils later on but that's it. If so I'll post some pictures.

Here are some pictures taken at OntraXS in a very rare moment of a special kind of skewed light incidence during a few afternoon minutes.

















Considering all the other model railways at the show I was a somewhat strange foreigner with a vehicle free model. But a lot of people took a second look after first rushing past and I was amazed to see so many people touched by this drawing office as a remembrance to their past.

Thanks for your advice, criticism and feedback along that project.

Cheers,
Volker
