I hope those of you who have been following along can take one more photo of the shed. I finished the roof using Stoney Creek corrugated vellum. Nice product and very easy to color with chalks. With the shed finished I can go back to the shop.

Thanks for looking, Roland

I'd be disappointed if you stopped posting pictures of your work. 
Great job on those rusty panels.

OK, I will keep posting progress photos until you all say "ENOUGH"
Larry, You are always welcome. Same go for anyone who finds himself stuck in Lancaster.

It bothered me that I had no room to put the donkey stack in the shed so I added a little more floor space.

Maybe 4-5 pieces to go and I will call the model finished. Should be this weekend. The switch stands came in a care package from Arthur, hope he doesn't want them back.

I only want them back if they come with everything else you've built. 
Just kidding.. Glad you were able to find a good use for them. Everything looks good.

Roland,
The clarity of your photos always makes me want to see more. The progress you show in your beautiful model, large or small, is a bonus.

Thanks Jerry and Arthur.
Geezer, Even I would look fabulous from 700 miles away.
Mike, Glad you like the photos. They are all taken with a Nikon Cool Pix.

Beautiful picture. I really like the old style switch stands. Where did you find them.....if I might ask?

Doc Tom. The switch stands are made by Evergreen Hill. Just decoration, they do not operate.
Well after 2 years and 3 months I am calling it finished, not done, but finished. There are still a few more details I would like to add but if I don't it is still ready for the convention.

Top up

It was a fun build as so many kits went into it that it was like working on something different most of the time.
