You are more than welcome!

Suggestion I've had now is cells for the police station that have an escape tunnel linking up with the sewers!

Idea I had was that the above ground manholes don't necessarily match below ground. 
When you first use a manhole it connects to a random ladder in the sewer. 
That means you might find a short-cut... or you might not! 
Obviously once the location is established it will remain.

Plan would be to put the major plot point in the sewers...or in the cells! 
Perhaps have the major plot point as a terror in the sewer...!

Thanks!

(It's actually the Public Carriage Office in Great Scotland Yard - but the book I was using for reference had  it as the Police Station!  o_o)

I laser cut them from MDF.   They are a little thick, I should probably have done them from 1mm MDF.
I could probably manage to cut another set (in 1mm) if you wanted?

I've now built a cellar and most of the jail cells. 

There are 3 cells and a staircase in jail plus an escape tunnel to the sewers!
Just needs cell doors and maybe a bit of furniture.

Cellar will get a ladder for access and a door to the sewer.
Just needs the ladder and door adding.

The system is getting a run out tonight, I'm thinking lost keys.
We need to 'liberate' a prisoner from the cells.

Doing anything other than walking in the sewers is perilous and the access point will be random.   
Pics later!

 Lovely set-up, the carriage house is a beauty (I assume it's one of your own laser-cut creations) :-*
