George: That is great looking set. Haven't seen that colour before. Is this new? I have a small set from the 30's and I think it really fits in well with my other tin and sheet steel buildings. Thanks for posting. Waynew

I don't even have it yet. I won it in an auction. It's not new and it has no box. I agree on the colors. Those were not listed as one of the four original colors. I'm pretty sure this was painted. The seller took good pictures of all sides. The back has some grey metal pieces. The cornices seem to have a grain in the paint like they were hand painted.

I'm not sure that it will stay named Lionel on my layout. That part is printed on paper and I suspect it was the owner's creation. I won't discard it. I just might want a different name on the building.
