Rex,
Thank you for posting that. After I finish the Macy's building Pennsylvania Station will be next in the que. I would say I am a railroad modeler - not a model railroader. My favorite railroad station of all was Pennsylvania Station. Probably was in there on the PRR 25 or more times, and it was hallowed ground to me. My O scale Christmas garden (stays up year 'round) already has the high level platforms in place and my longest one scales out almost exactly to being the length of the longest one in Pennsylvania Station.
My friends say my layout is an eastern industrial themed one and that is true. Steel mill is a little over 30 feet long. I probably can answer your question by saying I am both a railroad and architectural modeler. I like big buildings that tend to "hide" the trains.

My, that is impressive.

How about showing some photos?
