Goods Shed Part 2

 It's taking a bit longer then anticipated,  mainly due to limited time available after work,  but the goods shed for Windrush Junction is getting close to completion.  Just the roof,  and a few exterior / interior details and it can be installed on the railway.

The basic structure is based on the GWR shed at Ashburton ,  but it is not an exact copy.  It is very satisfying scratchbuilding a structure that doesn't exceed roughly $15 USD rather then purchasing a kit that exceeds £100.  O gauge doesn't have to be expensive,  in fact it can be the cheapest option of the different scales.

Peckett Presence

   A quiet day,  nothing much on at Windrush Junction.  Just the Peckett,  shunting some wagons at the brewery.  Time passes slowly on a warm summer evening.
