Candle illumination on enclosed station areas with light shining through windows that have acid etched glass (some glasses missing). Fairly large and grandiose, the station measures 17″ wide x 21″ deep (including awning). The station retains one original crank bell on front platform. SIZE: As stated above. CONDITION: As described above, a good cleaning would bring out the vibrancy of the paint. Lacking one rack of insulators on roof. Center spire possibly replaced.
