Almost done now. Scenery has been added - plants, lightposts, chairs, etc. The platform is built with railings, and the awning is in place with stickers showing a train schedule. Those yellow curved panels may be the rarest pieces in the whole set - in yellow, Bricklink only shows 4 having been sold in the last 6 months! They come in white and several trans colors (including trans clear in one of the Friends sets) as well, but yellow was exclusive to this set. Another thing driving Lego's profits down on these old sets... why not use the same white panels as the other station? And then just change the white floor here to a color if you want.
These beautiful lightposts were donated and contain plaques.

The Red-Tailed Hawk paid another visit at work and perched on a small light post searching for her breakfast.
...but for how long...............?
BIG is best!
This kind of clandestine network is quite a common sight in underprivileged communities in Brazil such as the SÃtio Joaninha, where we are preparing for our first community nucleus to prevent at-risk kids from hitting the streets. The literally hundreds of electric wires running back and forth across the open countryside give you some idea of the dimension of the problems facing an entire community.
Even though this kind of practice is illegal, the regional electricity suppliers often demonstrate a flexible attitude towards an underprivileged community’s needs until a satisfactory solution can be found, digesting the loss themselves. As this region is still barred for any further development due to the strict environmental laws, it seems we will just have to become part of this amazing network, which will probably keep on expanding as the community grows.
Unbelievably, all these wires come from one source; a single, heavily decorated lightpost, it being the last one along the dirt track to SÃtio Joaninha, where the electricity supply to the regular community ends. From then on it’s all networking...........
I’d hate to be the technician trying to figure out which cable is causing a short circuit along the line.
Chicago Area storms recently took down power for a lot of people. this is what it looked like when it rolled in. I grabbed this shot before the rain started to come down

First of these I've seen.

(Fabricius, 1793)
The Rosy Maple Moth (Dryocampa rubicunda) is a North American moth in the Saturniidae family. Males have a wingspan of 32–44 mm; females of 40–50 mm. They have reddish-to-pink legs and antennae, yellow bodies and hindwings, and pink forewings with a triangular yellow band across the middle. Males have bushier antennae than females. As the name implies, rosy maple moths mainly feed on Maples, particularly Red Maple, Silver Maple, and Sugar Maple. Sometimes these moths become pests on maple trees.
[edit] Life cycle
Females lay pale yellow eggs in clusters of 20-30 on the undersides of maple leaves. After about two weeks, small gregarious caterpillars hatch. They will remain gregarious through the third instar, but the final two are solitary. The mature larvae are light green with black lateral lines, red heads, and two filaments behind the head, and reach lengths of about 55 mm. When they are ready, they climb to the bottom of the host tree and pupate in shallow underground chambers. The pupae are very dark, elongated, and have small spines. The pupa ends in a small forked point. When the imago (adult) ecloses, it has small wings which it has to pump full of fluid in order for them to expand and allow for flight. Adult moths are generally nocturnal; they preferentially fly throughout the first third of the night (Fullard & Napoleone 2001). The females emit pheromones at night and attract males, which have bushier antennae to detect the pheromones.
Light posts on the facade of the Royal Palace of Madrid. Palacio Real de Madrid is the official residence of the Royal Family, but they don’t actually live here. Today, the Palace is mostly used for state ceremonies. Right next to the Royal Palace is Madrid’s Cathedral that was completed in 1994!
