Garden Railway Buildings Piko 62042 Rosenbach Engine Shed

Where there is a lot of rail traffic, an engine Shed is an absolute necessity. A single-track engine shed was soon added to Rosenbach station to house the small branch line locomotive. The thrifty rail authority had a cheap shed built of beams and planks, but with of course large double doors.

The roof of the shed was provided with a louvred superstructure to let out the smoke. The annexe at the side houses the office for the local railway foreman, but it could also be fitted out as a workshop for repairs to the little steam workhorse. Even though nowadays a diesel locomotive may find shelter here, the Rosenbach engine shed still creates the atmosphere of the pure romance of steam.
