Coon Creek Engine Shed - Academy Staff - 10-10-2011 The following was Originally submitted on 11-30-2001, by Shamus and is being recreated here to bring back some historical records to the New Academy: Nearly finished my Engine shed, however here is a shot of the completed (Not painted) shed and shed roof details. The actual roof has to have the slats down it yet and footboards added, but that’s when all painting is complete.

Re: Coon Creek Engine Shed - Academy Staff - 10-10-2011 11-30-2001, by Bill Stone Okay, Shamus, level with us. Aren't you really 3 or 4 people. I mean you spend time redesigning and beautifully reworking your layout, designing and building wonderful scratch structures, and taking great photographs. I mean even though you're retired, I cannot imagine how you do it all. Don't you require sleep, nourishment, or fresh air? ~ Bill Stone Re: Coon Creek Engine Shed - Academy Staff - 10-10-2011 12-01-2001, by roryglasgow Beautiful, Shamus! I wish I had your level of skills. With practice, right? Another great job! -Rory Re: Coon Creek Engine Shed - Academy Staff - 10-10-2011 12-01-2001 by Shamus Hi All, Thanks for the replies.

I sleep 7 hours per day/Eat three meals per day/ and play Golf. in my spare time. It's just that when I start something, I have to get on and finish it. I rekon on spending around 5 hours per day on the railroad. Shamus Re: Coon Creek Engine Shed - Academy Staff - 10-10-2011 12-01-2001 by jimnrose Shamus, Thanks again for sharing your work.
