Bing GBN Large Train Station c 1912, 30\" Long, Gauge 1 & O, Original Finish For Sale

This is one of the largest stations offered by Bing, Marklin, etc: Bing model #10237. The base is 29 3/4\" long and 11\" wide. The height of the towers, not including the flags, is 14\"; without the tops, they\'re 12\".
Please examine all the photos carefully--they are the most important part of the description.
Photo 4 shows the Bing 1912 catalog page--this station is the larger of the two, the one on the bottom.
This station has the original \"sand finish\" on the side portions, and the towers are made of pressed metal that looks like bricks. It has a great \"tile\" roof on the center section, and wonderful fishscale roofs on the sides. All paint, including the base (I think), appears to be original. Some of the window frames are missing, and some of the finish has nicks and chips--this makes it look more like an old, real railroad station.
The original gates are still there, there are numerous clock faces over the doors, and a larger clock with movable hands is attached on the center section.
When I got the station it looked like is does in photo 3. This is the way 98% of these stations look now--the tower tops are gone.
I found two original tower tops, but they are actually for the smaller version of this station. I used old Bing parts (which are exactly the same color) and created flat-roof resting places for the tops. I used a product called \"Tacky Glue\" to hold them in place. Tacky Glue is a craft glue, and it is not a permanent adhesive--you can pull apart the metal pieces you glued and roll off the glue residue with your fingers.
The flags and weathervane are new replacements. This station was designed both for lighting with candles or electric bulbs, as the factory-made holes in the base and the roof indicate. (Note that the base is held to the station structure with threaded posts and nuts.)
I will ship either USPS Ground or FedEx, depending on which one is cheaper. If shipping cost is more that $3.00 over what the buyer paid ($65.00) I will refund the difference after I ship. Shipping quote is for the lower 48 states.
