When planning Bigville, I wanted a fairly large City Hall building. I decided to use the Kenner's Morotized Girder & Panel and Bridge & Turnpike set form the mid 1960's, that I had recieved as a boy. The panels are quite brittle, so it would not withstand grandchildren playing with the set, so putting it on the layout was the perfect solution to display it. I was short a few parts to make the building I wanted, but a friend in the train club had a few extra pieces from a set he had recently disposed of. The building is lit internally using 2 individual circuits of LEDS, on always on, the other switched on. The grounds lights are old computer bulbs, that were scrapped in the 1980's. The flag at the top front of the building was a $ Tree gift from my daughter, that is wired in and alternates colors.
