Grand(er) Central Station
BlockTalk Summary
Reddit user /u/Sadop2010 shares an impressive custom building project, combining two copies of set 60469 to create a much larger and fuller train station dubbed "Grand(er) Central Station." The builder originally purchased set 60469 late last year and later acquired a second, partially complete copy missing its first two bags.
To achieve the expanded look, the builder constructed the second set largely in reverse while omitting the elevator and incorporating slight design tweaks. Additionally, the project features custom modifications, including the strategic addition of numerous masonry-style tan bricks to complete the aesthetic.
The creator plans to further expand the display by adding Superman minifigures to integrate the station into a DC-themed table setup. While the station currently lacks rolling stock, acquiring an actual train remains on the builder's to-do list. For builders taking on large custom modular expansions and MOC projects, keeping your workspace organized with a LEGO storage organizer makes sorting extra bricks and modified pieces much easier.
I bought set #60469 late last year but hadn't yet got around to building it. In the meantime I got ahold of a 2nd set, in mostly new shape minus the missing first two bags. So I combined it as best I could for a larger, fuller train station. For the most part I built the second set in reverse, minus the elevator and making some slight tweaks as I went. I also added in a lot of masonry style tan bricks to compete the look. At some point soon I'll add in some Superman mini-figures to make it...
