    Anyone know what this cool art-deco style building in Macnulty Yard is?

    Just intrigued as to what it is, I haven't been able to locate it on Google Maps.

    I'm pretty sure it's called a gas station.

    Without petrol pumps? Or do you mean that it used to be a gas station?

    Maybe putting in all the assets would take too much time and would be beyond the scope of a train simulator, so maybe they just added the structure of the gas pump in

    Not sure about Canada, but in the US, alot of old gas stations from the 50s have been closed down, some have been abandoned, others have since fallen into private hands and been repurposed into private storage or other businesses. It its possible that is what DTG attempted to achieve with this building.
