Tool repair shop progress

 My progress on this model has been slow but I have other issues occupying my time these days,   I have added more details and constructed the main part of the boiler house attached tp the tool repair shop.  


I have added a low boarded  railing on the outside work area with details along it including some shelves, a tool chest,  a barrel and some saw horses.


The boiler house has no roof yet and is at the back right. 


There are two windows in the boiler house - no glass.  


Above is a rear view of the structure.  The detail at the right side of the boiler house is a bin to add coal for the boiler. 


Above is a top view showing the details in the work area and the boiler house.  Next I will be adding some roofs.

Last week I was sorting through some of my old files and found a file containing many of the certificates I received for models  I displayed at conventions such as the NMRA conventions, narrow gauge conventions, MER conventions, and MER division meets.  They include 3rd, 2nd and first place awards plus one best in show.  There are also certificates for the many clinic presentations I gave.  Lots of fun those times.  

My final part of this model will be posted after Christmas.  Have a nice holiday!
