Yes Kim,it is outdoors,and it has been for over a year. When i think its going to rain, i have a large tarp that i cover the main area.All my equipement stays outdoors all year long. As far as the pictures ,i allways have a problem sending them. At 73 the technical
end seems to complex for me. Thanks for your interest.

Hi guys,
Well, the new train room finally got finished today, the concrete floor is hardening up as this goes to press, the trains are going on shelves on the wall shown. This weekend will be set aside for power and shelves and then the trains are in. Had a friends and family day on Saturday with a Denver & Rio Grande wood burner on the tracks, a few pics.

The brother in law brought along 5 gallons of Phoenix Arizona, complete with hand pump and pump clip, wonderful...........




The usual suspects.........








A fun time was had by all, especially when there was only 3 of us on the Arizona!

Cheers,
Kim

Mine are indoors for now, once I ever get around to building the extension to the metal shed, then they will be stored there.

Hi guys,
Last posting from me on this one. The 'Engine Shed' is now fully shelved out with a workshop area and everything train has been transferred into the shed from the house and garden shed. Her indoors is well pleased and promised me a pint later on, I would have had one anyway[;)]
A few pics showing the completed project, the only trouble is I only have one small shelf left for future purchases, mmm, that wall in the lounge would look good with some shelves on it[:D]





The work top folded down.


The work top folded away so it's still a walk through.

Cheers,

Kim,I'll do a deal with you.
If,after one month,you can still put that flap up (i.e. it's not covered with train bits) I send you the price of a pint...[;)]

Did I say my last post? Bud, that's what I call train storage. T Jack see you next spring no problem. Troy, know where you're going but if I can't hinge the work top up I can't get the rubbish out or get the lawn mower to the front.......what, fool that I am, I've made it so I can still mow the grass!! Time to start scattering train bits all over it! Cheers Troy, that was a close one!
Cheers,
Kim
