Long Engine Shed

£140.00

A laser cut kit of a long wooden engine shed

This kit is cut to order; dispatch usually within 1 week.

Description

No sooner than we produced our freelance engine shed earlier this year, we were being asked to make a long engine shed. So here it is ! Its internal length is now 52 cm which is long enough for a Roundhouse Double Fairlie.  Again the building has no base so that you can easily lift the building to get to any locomotive within the shed. Also the office or mess room may be assembled on either side of the main building.

If you would like to assemble your engine shed as  “through road” shed you will need an additional set of doors. These are available here. 

Plywood Construction

The main structural parts of this kit are laser cut from 3mm poplar plywood to give that real wood feeling to the model. The main walls are double thickness to give the building greater weight.

Working Doors

This kit features working main doors, the working hinges and door catch being 3D printed nylon. The doors measure 15 cm wide by 18 cm tall . 

High Impact Polystyrene Roof

Separate corrugated roof panels are included to build up a more realistic roof . Window panes are also cut from the same material.

Note: If the modeler intends to leave this building out between running sessions then we highly recommend thoroughly varnishing or painting this structure together with the use of a waterproof PVA adhesive (neither of which is not included in this kit).
