haha, yeah I even noticed the white stripe across the platforms and trackbed under the edge of the roof where the pigeons perch, thinking 'that's somthing rarely modelled in 4mm scale.'

Would be quite easy to do, a flick of a Tipp-ex brish would do it!

Seen the dead pigeons as well, must be either a borken window or a hole in the netting. Not nice to see one above you obviously dead, probably with a few hundred maggots or whatever it in.

As for rubbish, surely it is better to have a few of the clear platstic bag bins instead of nothing? Thinking about underground stations (but would apply to other stations as well), a lot of the time the rubbish is blown onto the tracks, meaning someone with appropriate track safety etc has to remove it (a person I guess gets paid more than a normal cleaner). Also I've heard this rubbish can cause a fire risk, especially on 3rd rail/electrified lines such as the Underground, Merseyrail etc.
