EZ Track Double Stall Shed Suggestions

Hello everyone,

I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for a double stall engine shed that would accommodate engines using EZ Track? Preferably pre-built and run-through? (No wall at either end)

I'm currently in a small apartment and don't have much space other than a desk to do a set-up a small train yard for the time being and wanted to give it a little more life than a few roads of straight tracks.

With whatever building you decided on, put some lengths of strip wood under the base to raise it up to accommodate the E-Z Track.
There are different sizes of sheds out there. You have to figure out how long you want it. What is the longest loco you will use with it. Steam or diesel? Steam ones tend to be more rustic looking while diesels one are more modern looking.

And don't forget that real Engine houses had floors level  with the top of the rails.

They make triangle strip wood that could be butted up against the roadbed.

Also, most engine houses had service/inspection pits between the rails inside. You have to cut that out of the EZ track Roadbed and ties between the rails.
