Six weeks after it was ordered, the train shed finally
arrived on Thursday, June 23rd. The setup crew arrived at
6:30 in the morning and started putting it together. The
whole thing comes prefabricated on a flatbed truck.

Now that the shed has been completed, we were able to
pour a new concrete patio, enclose the existing patio to
include a dining area and my computer desk. Both areas
are for train watching. While we eat and as I work on the
computer.
|
The outdoor patio is covered and is a very comfortable
conversation and train watching area.

Most of the major work is done on the railroad. Ballast has
been leveled, switches operate properly and trains run
smoothly.
