About this creation
7-Eleven is very common in big city, especially in Taiepi. There are 3 7-Eleven around my apartment (in 1Km). So while I was preparing the coming LEGO Train Show(hold on Aug. 31, 2003.), the idea came into my brain and I built it immediately.
Now there are over 3300 7-Eleven in Taiwan. It's incredible because there are only 33000000 persons in Taiwan. Gees. :p
7-Eleven is not only a store but also our neighbors. Not only the food, drink, cigirate, and magazines, We can also pay the phone/gas/water/cable bill in 7-Eleven. 7-Eleven helps us to delivery stuffs to another location in Taiwan. We can order books/CD/other stuffs online and ask them to ship to the cloest 7-Eleven, and then we take the stuffs before we get home.
Well, I know 7-Eleven is quite different in each country. At least not the same in Taiwan, Hongkong and US. Now you can see the style of Taiwan 7-Eleven :)

The door is reserved for the wagon.
You may be curious how do I get the orange bricks/plates. Well, I found 2 bulks of 7832 and 1 7825. It costs me about NT$1400 (about $40).
