The first word that springs to mind, is "Impressive!". I would have neither the skill, nor more importantly, the patience, for this task. Your skills and patience are to be admired. Can't wait to see the finished building in situ. The windows look niiiiiiice!
You sir, have the patience of a saint. I know a lot of material was involved, but I am amazed how far the corrugated roofing went with your design. But it's looking good in it's freshly painted state, so will no doubt be even better when detailed and weathered.
Fabulous work 👍 You have the patience of a saint. I find your videos really interesting too watch and take some of your ideas for my layout thanks. Looking forward to your next one. Cheers Stevie 😃
Crikey - wonderful vision and patience you have - think the building will be incredibly impressive when finished. Always watch your videos with interest, and learn a lot - many thanks and please keep posting! Regards, Alasdair
Once again admiring your attention to detail with incredible patience..... I also suffer with bordem setting in on tedious work & they always seem to take forever but at the end when admiring the result, its always worth it.
Excellent! superb scratchbuilding windows look great as does the skylights & corrugated roofing looking forward to next update, thumbs up on your skills and detail.
Some piece of work Richard . Truelly amazing. You should sell the kit to Hornby or Bachmann I'm sure they would make a fortune selling that kit in sections for people to build to whatever length they required. Really great job and so precise and neat .
Some great work on the carriage shed, as already mentioned remember on a building that big there is bound to be some cracked even broken glass sections, young kids and ballast stones, never a good mix...;-) Nice work and I'm sure you'll be sick of windows time your finished....cheers Ian
Brilliant, I can't wait to see this building finished and in place. I'm so glad that thought about the rainwater run off, I was concerned when you fitted the apex cladding before the roof windows, but what you've done looks great.
I've seen all of your videos Richard and your modelling skill I know well. What amazes me is your planning skill and patience. I, (like all of your subscribers), am looking forward to seeing trains using the shed on Everard Junction. David.
Really starting to look awesome now mate can't wait to see it on the layout luckily for me I have a daughter who gets a lot of dolls so I always claim the boxes with the clear plastic on the front just food for thought maybe you have a relative like that I then use thin strips of insulation tape wrapped around the glass sections for the frames looked quite cool on a scale scenes shed I made
Looking good Richard, the roof looks smart, the roof vents will really finish it off nicely, the view of coaches in the shed will be very smart when completed Andy
So glad I've subscribed to your channel, loving your attention to detail and your patience, it did make me laugh though when you found it tedious. Keep the faith brother!!! You've inspired me to crack on with my 8'×4' layout, so many ideas, but time and budget will only allow me so much at once. Don't think I'm ready to scratch build just yet. Great video!!!
Wow, absolutely admirable. If patience did not exist you must have invented it. Looks very good indeed, but I cannot see myself ever doing something like this. You are however inspiring me very much indeed and I may well in due course, when I have laid my track, follow some of your recipes for track laying, ballasting and weathering. Looks so good and seems relatively simple to achieve. It is all new to me however, so there are lots of learning curves. All the best!
Nice job done on the windows. When making so many identical elements, I'm now using a new approach that I showed with a friend of mine earlier in Ally Pally : I draw the chassis with a CAD programm (Qcad works fine) in as many layers as there is depth levels, and then I cut those layers in .3 mm plasticard with a Craft Robo machine (I just purchased the Silhouette Cameo 2, that can work on 30 cm wide elements, and to any lenght). The machine can cut up to .35 mm thick plasticard, but we also use it with .5 mm thick styrene and adjusting the depth of the cutting tool we can first carve the styrene (to create brick work for example) and then cut the elements out of the sheet (well, we cut nearly trough in fact, leaving just the need to bend and snap the piece to get it out of the carrier sheet). I'll make videos & entries in RMWeb on the subject later to show how it works, while working on a building adapted from a wordsworth paper kit... Eric.
Wonderful job you thit Richard, amazing how precise you work. Cant wait for video part 17 hi. You inspire me to go now also work with K track insteat of C track from Marklin in my Steam loc depot. Hope you can read my English caus iam a dutch man. Greatings from Holland Rudy
Hello Everard, The corrugated sheets do well, in between the light band of sunlight, good sized, created the window clean. Do everything a good overall picture!
I feel in love with your project! I started watching a week ago from part1 thinking it was already finished, but this was the last one. Can''t wait to see more progress updates! Cheers from a Buenos Aires! :)
This project just gets better with each instalment. Absolutely fabulous. Really looking forward to the next episode. This is worse than watching "Game of Thrones", when you see one episode and you have to wait a week for the next episode. lol. Well done Richard, really impressive. Can't believe that some IDIOT has given you a thumbs down, should be Shot. Kind regards John
Oh Richard. I just finished Part 16 where is the rest??? I was so engrossed with it and really looking forward to seeing the completed layout. Please let me know if there is more to come. Thanks. x
Coming along nicely. I don't know if train sheds had/have heating but if they did, they could well have had flues protruding through the roof from high level ambirad heating.
love it wish I had your skills at this. you are talking about making a cat walk up top but what about two etched metal walk ways in the rafters under the windows for the workers to clean the windows and work on the vents when needed. you could even have a guy or two cleaning the inside window just a though. Hope the next video will be soon. thanks for sharing your model with us.
just subbed to your channel excellent layout i'm at the research part of my layout leicester midland i hope to see plenty more videos as i've pretty much watched everyone of yours up to now all the best
Hi Richard, well the shed is really looking fantastic now, you certainly have some patience making all those windows! Have you thought about using Deluxe materials glue n glaze adhesive? It's specially designed for gluing clear plastic as it dries to a completely clear film and doesn't react with the plastic and cause it to go white or craze over. Just a thought. Cheers...........Howard.
+Mayhew Junction Thanks Howard. I actually have some but even though it dries clear you can still see it. I went for the plastic glue mainly due to strength. I really don't want these windows to start falling apart. Cheers
It's been really good watching this large shed taking shape. Are you going to scratch build all the roof "furniture" as it were, and if you are will you be creating a how to video in the same vein as the other videos. It really has been enjoyable watching the creation of this section of the layout. Keep putting together these informative videos, all the best mate and keep it going, Jim.
Evening Richard. A thought although it a bit late in the construction. If the window frames were not white and its doubtful they would be, is it feasible to put the acetate sheet in the printer and print an Excel or similar grid onto it in a mucky brown. I realize you wont get the raised glazing bars that way though. Des.
Great build. Like others have said and I agree your attention to detail is very good. However my question is how much of this shed was planned, and how much was built on the fly?
I'm not sure which is more fascinating, your construction talents or your explanations. Simply great stuff. Not to 'gild the lily' here, but might there be plans for interior lighting? Here in the states, as late as the 1970's one could find outdoor industrial lighting of a bare light bulb hooded with a 20 inch or so round piece of corrugated sheet metal. In real life these lamps gave off very poor lighting but very atmospheric.
The windows look really good. Have you thought about putting in some broken windows/boarded up windows in that the youth of the day may have thrown bricks at? lol
The first word that springs to mind, is "Impressive!". I would have neither the skill, nor more importantly, the patience, for this task. Your skills and patience are to be admired. Can't wait to see the finished building in situ. The windows look niiiiiiice!
It's great to see how you had made this engine shed. Very impressive indeed. Excellent work Richard.
Gold medal for patience on those windows. It looks tedious even when speeded up! Great Video, look forward to next part
You sir, have the patience of a saint. I know a lot of material was involved, but I am amazed how far the corrugated roofing went with your design. But it's looking good in it's freshly painted state, so will no doubt be even better when detailed and weathered.
Blimey, what dedication Richard. Well done fella.
Fabulous work 👍 You have the patience of a saint.

you are a perfectionist, Richard.beautiful job . keep up the good work. enjoying watching. dave n jen
Very nice. The skylight window frames suit the roof and frame structure perfectly.
Richard, you are an amazing builder! What a great addition to your incredible layout... Thanks for sharing!
Looks fantastic. The visibility into the shed in great.
Once again admiring your attention to detail with incredible patience..... I also suffer with bordem setting in on tedious work & they always seem to take forever but at the end when admiring the result, its always worth it.
The shed looks great, you have the patience of a saint!
Great attention to detail. I look forward to seeing the progress in each new video posted.
The building is amazing can't wait to see the finished product
Excellent! superb scratchbuilding windows look great as does the skylights & corrugated roofing looking forward to next update, thumbs up on your skills and detail.

+wraggi1 Thanks Ian. There will certainly be some cracked and broken panes added in future.
That looks amazing you truly are an artist. Thanks so much for sharing.
The progress on the shed is great. My hats off to you. It will be one of a kind on the layout. I would have given up on those windows after two.Scott
+Scott Downey are you related to Brian Downey of Thin Lizzy fame?
fantastic as usual...... really enjoying watching this come together
Fantastic work, always look forward to your videos.
Brilliant, I can't wait to see this building finished and in place. I'm so glad that thought about the rainwater run off, I was concerned when you fitted the apex cladding before the roof windows, but what you've done looks great.
I'm not sure which is the more impressive Richard - your model making skills or your patience!!!
+Caversham Central Thanks. Its certainly is trying my patience. Why did I build it with so many windows!!
+EverardJunction So it's going to look epic when you're done!
Amazing work so far. You must have patience of a saint!!
I've seen all of your videos Richard and your modelling skill I know well. What amazes me is your planning skill and patience. I, (like all of your subscribers), am looking forward to seeing trains using the shed on Everard Junction. David.
nearly missed this update, shed & windows are looking great, looking forward to seeing the shed in use.

Wish i had the confidence to build something like this Richard , what a crackin model
Absolutely awesome work. You are an inspiration. I wish I was a talented as yourself. I am enjoying your builds immensely.
Looking good Richard, the roof looks smart, the roof vents will really finish it off nicely, the view of coaches in the shed will be very smart when completed Andy
Awesome work! Thank you for sharing your experience.
very impressive Richard, you have the patience of a saint!
Its looking fantastic !! Well impressed cheers dave
Great update. Thanks for sharing .

Same but no room to build mm wonder if I can build a shack in the yard
A great bit of work there, well impressed with your building. Looking forward to seeing it complete.
Hi Richard, Looked through this months Hornby Magazine, I see the building is now completed and in place for the photo shoot, well done... Davi
That she'd is going to be incredible when finished
Wow, absolutely admirable. If patience did not exist you must have invented it. Looks very good indeed, but I cannot see myself ever doing something like this.

What a great job you do. I've enjoyed your videos greatly.

Amazing videos, your such a talent, this layout is such a inspiration, thank you,

Love your Work, looks Great.
Wow! 2 years ago now.. I can still remember watching this vid when you first uploaded it! 😎
Great video, the whole structure is looking great. Very tedious with the windows but well worth it for the effect it creates
Amazing work, look forward to more. - Duff
Its beginning to look very impressive. I can't wait to see it on your display.
duuuuuuuuuuude...that intro is so sick...very realistic...good job...
Hello Everard, The corrugated sheets do well, in between the light band of sunlight, good sized, created the window clean. Do everything a good overall picture!
you must have the patience of a saint! fantastic stuff!
that is looking just superbe mate!
is so mesmerising to se the symetry of it all, just like the real deal!
keep ut the great work! ;)
That is looking brilliant! You've inspired me to have a crack at scratch building some models :)
That looks REALLY nice so far mate well done
It's really starting to come together now, looking good ☺
Really great model building
It's fun to see you have fun with camera angles with your models, this time at 8:15 with the brass work : )
I feel in love with your project! I started watching a week ago from part1 thinking it was already finished, but this was the last one. Can''t wait to see more progress updates!
Cheers from a Buenos Aires! :)

Can't believe that some IDIOT has given you a thumbs down, should be Shot. Kind regards John
+John Bennett Haha thanks John. Next vid will be a little while longer. The windows are taking ages!
Hang in there, the result is already starting to look freaking awesome! :D
Great Video as usual! Liking the windows, perhaps some broken ones may not go amiss! Hope you had a good Easter,James
absolutely superb job your doing, and i wish i was in the same line as you when they were giving patience out lol
Absolutefuly wonderful. I can see where the windows could be tedious but I can't weight for the next part - so get busy - haha..
+David Curtis Work is continuing on the shed. The windows are taking ages! Will be another week or two before the next part.
Oh Richard. I just finished Part 16 where is the rest??? I was so engrossed with it and really looking forward to seeing the completed layout. Please let me know if there is more to come. Thanks. x
Coming along nicely.
I don't know if train sheds had/have heating but if they did, they could well have had flues protruding through the roof from high level ambirad heating.
+Kingswood Junction Some had heating i'm sure, bu so far research into carriage sheds shows they had very little stuff inside.
love it wish I had your skills at this. you are talking about making a cat walk up top but what about two etched metal walk ways in the rafters under the windows for the workers to clean the windows and work on the vents when needed. you could even have a guy or two cleaning the inside window just a though. Hope the next video will be soon. thanks for sharing your model with us.
+curtis hunt Thanks. Next vid will be a little while. It's taking ages to build the windows!
Really enjoyed your video
just subbed to your channel excellent layout i'm at the research part of my layout leicester midland i hope to see plenty more videos as i've pretty much watched everyone of yours up to now all the best

+Mayhew Junction Thanks Howard. I actually have some but even though it dries clear you can still see it. I went for the plastic glue mainly due to strength. I really don't want these windows to start falling apart. Cheers
Brilliant job..wish I had half of your patience..
You and me both
I've been waiting part 16 dude sweet I love your videos

It really has been enjoyable watching the creation of this section of the layout. Keep putting together these informative videos, all the best mate and keep it going, Jim.
Ohno, this is only the last part you made. I watched them all. Now I have to wait for new ones. *subbed*
+dinaatjuh Next one is on the way in a week or so. It's taken ages to build all those windows.
A great show of patience !! Still using a plastic ruler though... shame on you :-) Look forward to seeing the finished building.
Stunning !!
Inspirational video yet again top marks
Wonderful work Richard, I noticed at a few points you tended to use 2 different glues, why was that?
How we going with part 17? Can't wait to see whats next :)
i have been watching all the episodes
Great as always !
Evening Richard.
A thought although it a bit late in the construction. If the window frames were not white and its doubtful they would be, is it feasible to put the acetate sheet in the printer and print an Excel or similar grid onto it in a mucky brown. I realize you wont get the raised glazing bars that way though.

+Richard Fetterman Thanks. Lighting will be added later to the outside and inside of the shed.
Looking forward to seeing the finished the shed.
Another video, belting!
Another enjoyable video. No idea where you get your patience....... :-)
Love it. Genius...
The windows look really good. Have you thought about putting in some broken windows/boarded up windows in that the youth of the day may have thrown bricks at? lol
Great idea
+Michael Henfrey Yep. Anywhere where there are glue issues will get turned into a smashed/boarded up pane.
Great update, it's looking really good, but so many windows 😱. I don't think I could do that many, its modelling torture
Amazing, is there no end to your talent?
I would avoid gluing the skylight section to leave access for any derailments inside the shed
Also thank you for another great video
+thomas thornton Richard's not glueing it onto the baseboard I think
+thomas thornton They sit nicely in the roof unglued so I'll leave them like that. Then as you say I can get inside to sort derailments.
hi there could you do a video on broken track and re ballasting as I have track problems on my layout thanks
seriously you're layout is actually fucking amazing
