We had just the front wall of our sandstock brick house repointed at least 15 years ago and it still looks great. We are in Australia and it was was a bloke from Liverpool in England that did it. He had worked on the brickwork at Anfield during his apprenticeship. One wall was a big enough job. Our house was built in 1888 so I know how much work restoring an old place is. It's nice watching your family doing it.

That is a ton of tedious, dirty work! While I'm sure it's costly, having it all done at once to protect the brick from further damage (like water getting into mortar gaps and freezing) will be worth it. Unlike many historic homes in the U.S., you have no stucco and minimal wood, so you won't have to do much exterior painting over the coming years (those Queen Anne Victorians with the four color paint schemes cost a bundle to maintain). A young gal in West Virginia did the brick repairs herself on her Victorian house; it took her 9 months. I've heard of a specialty carpenter who creates trim pieces like your roof edging, but he is located in Missouri. I'm sure someone closer to you can be found. So exciting to see the huge impact this will make to the look of the station. Toot! Toot! :D

Wonderful stuff, looking almost new again, Such a shame they just cut the support beams of the canopy, sadly even the railway did that at stations that are still open, either the glass gets smashed so they decide to take down the canopy to save money, or they say they will replace it with another then don't or worse knock the whole building down for a Portakabin Yuk. Anyway, looking good, can't wait to see the pointing done and what comes next! Good luck.
