Well it started my day with a smile.  ;D

A mini station but no moving trains?

Missed a trick there, needs a garden railway from the train to the house so when he wants a cup of tea it can be sent to him on the train!

Very nice shed, but I bet Gilda would love to brain him with the 'cup of tea' signal :smiley-laughing:

When I saw the train on the shelf I thought he had some track laid round the walls then I realised it was an ornament.  Perhaps he has a plan to add some track later  :-\

Train buffs come in all shapes and sizes and styles, to me sitting with a mate enjoying a beer or cuppa looks like fun as there is nothing like a good old bit of railway chatter, good luck to em.

Great shed!  I expected that train to go around the edge of the shed as well.  :)

Here's my effort, although I've added double glazing now.

I agree, yours is pretty good too mate.  :thumbsup:
Looks a bit like a signal box.
