Specific Item Information: Kit size: 1-3/4”L x 1-5/8”W x 1-3/8”H

The model is based on a typical speeder shed or tool house found on most railroads but elevated with a trestle underneath for construction on a slope. It can also be assembled on a flat section of land. The typical Speeder Shed is where the railroad stored maintenance parts, extra signs, tools, hand cars, velocipedes, and in later years, motorized speeders. The shed was positioned on a section of track where a crew could be called out to inspect and do small repairs to the track within its section.

The kit includes laser cut bass wood, micro plywood, and fiber board parts. Also included are peel and stick trim and door, and roofing parts plus printed signs, and laser cut details. Assembly is made easy by tab-and-slot parts. Diagrams and photo instructions explain not only how to build the model but how to paint the structure for a realistic new look or an old weathered finish.
Model Information: All components are precision laser cut with peel and stick windows, doors, and trim for simple painting and construction. The kits are made of laser cut basswood, micro plywood, fiber board, plastic parts, plus cast chimneys (where appropriate).
Road Name History:
Railroad structures include but are not limited to stations, depots, yard offices, interlocking towers and tanks. A train station, railway station, railroad station, or depot is a railway facility where trains regularly stop to load or unload passengers or freight.

It generally consists of at least one track-side platform and a station building (depot) providing such ancillary services as ticket sales and waiting rooms. If a station is on a single-track line, it often has a passing loop to facilitate traffic movements. The smallest stations are most often referred to as "stops" or, in some parts of the world, as "halts" (flag stops). Stations may be at ground level, underground, or elevated. Connections may be available to intersecting rail lines or other transport modes such as buses, trams or other rapid transit systems.
