Some time ago i bought two Jackson Miniatures kits one of a signal box that i adapted, link of build below.

And one of an engine shed that i wanted to make into a double shed with a few changes.
First up this is the kit
Before building i like to blue tac the bits together to get a feel for how the kit can be adapted.
One of the reason i wanted to adapt this kit was its only really any good for very small loco.
New walls are cut to size
The engine shed doors that came with the kit are just cut 20mm short so they dont snag on the rail so i decided i wanted them to be a little more fitting like the plastic kits , just need to get a few more hindges for the doors now.
Thought i would test a couple of locos in situ to see how it looked
Additional roof vents made and once again just placed in situ
New windows for my extended section
Windows and doors placed in postion .
