After looking at the drawing's for the Dec 2012 issue ( on-line ) My wife and I desided that would be a good winter project. ( Can't Play in the rain ) Anyone have any thoughts about how to build this 15 inch x 42,5 inch plus shed ? any help would be gladly accepted.
Thanks
Dave
I'm adding this picture since this is where I will be putting this building
The head is gray, hands don't work , back is weak, legs give out, eyes are gone, money go's and my wife still love's Me.
After reviewing the drawing's this project is being put on hold till ver 10 is completed ( Trains running ) .
I haven't received the Dec issue yet so can't comment on the drawings. I do plan to build a three or four stall engine house this winter with a turn-table in front of it. I just finished building the "table" using an arched type construction method. I'll post pictures of the build once I get the track laid.
What is "ver 10"?

1. Thats the next issue, the drawing are in the subscriber extras section ( above ). This look's like it could be modified by making the back wall's wider.
2. Ver 10 is my current rebuild of the Delta Northern ( My RR ).
Thanks for the info on the drawing location. I've down loaded and studied it. Unfortunately its not for me. Mine will be a round house that I can expand as I have more engines to store. I think I'll be running the roof the other way and making it removable so I can get to the power switches and charging jacks. I'm battery powered. Also I'm rural old west without a brick supply (yet) so none of my buildings have any brick on them. That could change of course. Right now I'm going with exterior frame beam type construction.
I hadn't thought of doing railroad versions. I do something different each year so I guess those could be versions. A next version for me is adding a new building or two from the winter building season and then rearranging everything to integrate the new structures.
Keep us posted on your "Ver 10".
Just wondering how "Ver 10". is coming .
havent heard anything .

When I read about the evils of drinking I quit reading.
there is a down load in garden railways of a 2 stall engine house im working on it would look great on your layout westy
Ver. 10 update: haven't done much since Oct. I have made list things to do. and I am working a Garden metal models 36 inch bridge w/decking and handrails, having problem with what type of glue to use on the sections of decking. I fear that if I don't attach them the first derail on the bridge will be a disaster.
