Thanks, it sort of “flows” under the plate girder bridge the train is on.
Thank you fellas.
Bill,
This is a typical colonial from the early 1900s. It was a one family converted into a two family. The porch and back steps were installed in 1967 or 68.
I was born in 1957 and lived upstairs above my grandmother and moved out in 1979 when I got married.
Mighty nice retirement gift. Beats a watch any day.

I was worried about the structure surviving shipping to Canada. Luckily it did ok. If you look closely you will see the top cages came unglued and are resting on the platforms.
