Last stop - PHILIPS

[ViennaSound]

On our tram line , there is a station at the big PHILIPS city.
One day there have been the videoworks, tape production, innovation and some more.
A very large plant.
And in the 80´s this station have been the most modern of the whole line:

But now the great times are over.
PHILIPS sold the most, other companies are now in the buildings.

Now after years our station got again some modification, also new signs.
And the PHILIPS-labes got also erased.
But i was lucky and got myself the old station sign:

this thing is about 5 meters long
I will save it on a wall at my garden house

Could not imagine better score for you Roman. This sign rocks . Did you transported it whit the tram? 5 meters wow . Is it sort of transparent ? Just imagine it whit some backlights in your garden shed, some booming boxes, vienna wurstchen and beer under the light from the sigh

There was also a metal plateholder with backlight, but soooo heavy and rusty, i leaved it

Transport is no problem, as you can see it is in 2 parts , each 2,5meters

That must have been interesting trying to get it home.

Top Notch Work Roman!

@shaka: our company is also selling some pretty nice HO-scale tram+train models.
Most of them now out of production, so only a few left for sale.
If interested for your collection, let me know.
