Thanks for the compliments guys. Pete, I'll do the best I can to make the effort all the worth while for everyone. It's a good article with lots of details. If I can do it some small amount of justice, I'll be happy.
In case anyone is wondering, I have not forgotten about my Interlocking Tower. I found by checking around that CP painted all of, if not most of their track side structures like these two a simple shade of box car red, with cream trim around the windows and doors. So when I get to the stage I'll do them both at the same time.
I worked on the drying shed today.

The roof for the shed is not glued in place. I still need to add the glass for the window, however I won't do that until after I paint it. Then I'll affix it in place with some CA. I still might add some lighting to the interior and the plans call for a lamp on the tower, however that is easily accomplished with some "conduit" and some small LED's.
I am kind of amazed as to how quickly this is going. I bet I'll be singing a different tune once I start the actually tower part, but I'm looking forward to that component of the build.
I might get started on the tower tonight. Thanks for taking a look.
