Prototype photo of the Bluffs MOW shed. Unfortunately, I didn't have room to model the grounded ex-Chessie PS-1 behind it. By: Joe Atkinson

Scratchbuilt MOW shed looking NW. Electrical box is from SS Ltd., while the screen over the window is Scale Scenics #3500 aluminum micro mesh. Bulk of the structure is Evergreen stock, with the walls scribed to represent the prototype's panels. The roof ribs were cut from 1/16" C-channel. By: Joe Atkinson

MOW shed looking SW. Window is a modified Grandt Line item, and electrical conduit head is a modified P2K MU receptacle. I plan to paint and weather this in the coming week, followed by blending it and the turntable pit (foreground) into the surrounding scenery. By: Joe Atkinson

Hopefully this view gives a better idea of why I chose the C-channel for the roof ribs. I realize these are just L-shaped, but I compromised to allow more surface area when attaching them. By: Joe Atkinson
