Train Station - The Virginia & Truckee 1940 Jigsaw Puzzle
Colourized photo from 1940
Original title: Railroad station
Photographer: Arthur Rothstein
Location: 729 North Carson Street, Carson City, NV
This is the Virginia & Truckee Railroad Depot, built in 1872. The style is of the 19th-century railroad pattern book of architecture. It measures 31x181 feet.
It remained in use until 1950 when the V&TRR ceased operations. The building was eventually bought in 1952 by the Carson City Freemasons, and then became Masonic Lodge #1. To this day, this building serves that same purpose.
The train going by is also pretty old, it was originally built in 1907. And it was used for years beyond when this was taken (at least another 10 years). It must have been really tricky getting on and off. I see no platform, and that gap looks like a real leg breaker.

I got this image in 110 pieces as I cannot commit to large puzzles. This one took me about an hour and was fairly easy. Perhaps 252 pieces would have better suited me for a little more complexity. This is not my favourite sugar skull as I prefer more girly colours like hot pink, reds and purples but I enjoyed doing this one. There is a lot of detail in the image and it was interesting to do. I don't think I will buy the larger puzzle count just because there are other sugar skull images that I much prefer.
Again very good quality puzzle and durable storage box that fits very well on small bookcase. The image was well positioned on this one so who ever printed this one got it pretty bang on.

We are pleased with the jigsaw itself. However we are disappointed the box is far bigger than the jigsaw and not the kind of storage box we expected i.e. Ravensburger standard; rather it's a postage box and not very sturdy at that. Given it cost £18 + pp we did expect more. The image quality is good.
The pieces are rather thin and flimsy.

Jigsaw puzzle is of excellent quality, finish. Only thing I was not too happy about was the actual image printed on the outside of the accompanying presentation box. It was printed approximately A6 in size and was half the actual size of the presentation box. Making it difficult for me to see the actual jigsaw puzzle design when trying to put together the actual jigsaw puzzle :(.
