Matt:
I don't know if the Rly would put speeder sheds out in "the middle of nowhere". They'd usually be where the crew could reach them from home, unless there was an overnight stay for some reason.
Speeder sheds & offices were usually the simplest shed form -- rectangular with the roof slanted to the back, doors big enough for the speeder, maybe a door and window for an office. The ones I grew up with had wooden rails to the track and a platform inside the track with two quarter-circle arcs where the wheels were turned.
