Thanks Ed.
So far so good. Very little flash, and the parts are nicely formed. As Val (Spitfire) noted to me, there is a bit of an issue with joining them top to bottom. The upper overlays the lower, and the resulting joint in the brick is not as nice and even as the ones moulded into the parts themselves. To correct this, I am filing the top "tabs" of each piece.
The doors and windows are a good fit, as are the brick inserts to model bricked over windows.
One problem I may have is the large rail door is a roll-up type, which may be too modern for my era (1920s - 30s). I will have to look into this a little more.
