Do you have a link to the sectional engine shed you refer to? I don’t see one on the site.
Also, just bought the Lionel 8-82105 on ebay. Will build it and see if my B-mann Shay fits in it.

What link are you referring to that doesn’t work?
The engine house is surprisingly large and the Bachmann 1:20.3 3 truck Shay fits with room to spare in all dimensions, especially length.
If you aren’t seeing the photos, you can go to my photobucket:

Or Facebook “Oakhurst Railroad”
One of the replies referenced Ozark having a sectional shed, but no link and I dont see it on their site. It also referenced Colorado Models building supplies with 2 links which worked.
A bit off subject, despite the fact I have very limited space in my basement for a model railroad other than Z perhaps, I still plan to construct a small large scale (don’t you just love the play on words?) around-the-walls shelf layout just the same.
Power to pull my LGB Denver & Rio Grande Western combine will be the Hartland Locomotive Works Mighty Mack switcher of all things. OK, I hear y’all in the background slapping your collective knees (LOL) but I love these little critters just the same, besides, Mack did build the prototype that H-L-W used to base their model on as well!
There will be two Macks on the roster. The one for freight will get “steam locomotive” black while the one for passenger service will receive the yellow “Silverton” color scheme. Since my “layout” will be for personal entertainment only, I won’t follow any prototypical rules.
The enginehouse I have selected for the Macks will be the Piko Goepplingen brick model with added modernized skylights. Though European in design, if you compare it to the old Revell brick operating enginehouse of the 50s, the simularity will surprise you.
As I mentioned, this project is for my personal entertainment only, and I’m going to do my very best to relive the one time slogan of Model Railroader, “Model Railroading is Fun!” 'nuff said? Thanks y’all. A Texan currently derailed in Deutschland.
