Sizewise it feels like a real trainshed, as might be seen in a UK city.
  The trans-black skylights are actually more realistic as they are
never clean and clear in real life, but yellowed and very dirty.
Glassed in windows - nice touch, although again UK examples would have
holes to let the smoke and steam out - no-one cares about the workers
being cold!

Here in Canada glassed in windows is a must, lest you have ice cubes instead of
workers.  I did leave the grills open at the top for ventilation.

(...) I should have worked that one out! If it weren't for the Gulf Stream, we'd be in a similar position. In case it wasn't clear in my original posting, nice job, Mike! Alastair (21 years ago, 17-Jul-03, to lugnet.trains)

Impressive - although more than a rebuild, at three times the size! (...) Maybe, although most UK train sheds are that colour - well, more like sand red actually - brick. (...) Sizewise it feels like a real trainshed, as might be seen in a UK city. (...) (21 years ago, 16-Jul-03, to lugnet.trains)
