Which way?

Take a look at the two pictures of Furnace below and let me know which arrangement you prefer.

The difference between the two pictures is the placement of the general store/post office building. (The general store/post office building is the cardboard structure between the water tower and the station in both pictures.)

Picture 1 - building back to tracks.

In this picture the general store/post office building is back to the tracks. This will cause the dirt road to pass between it and the backdrop as it will do at the station. In this configuration the building will be a full size building and result in less flexibility in its placement. However this arrangement gives me more flexibility with the team track vehicle approach and platform.

Picture 2 - building facing tracks.

In this picture the general store/post office is facing the tracks as a backdrop building. This will cause the dirt road to pass between it and the tracks before curving to pass between the backdrop and the station. This arrangement will show more detail and give more flexibility with the final placement of the general store/post office building but give less flexibility with the team track vehicle approach and platform.

Which arrangement do you think looks best?
