JS Models releases new laser-cut kits for small sheds, ideal for smaller branch line and industrial locomotives.
JSModels has added to its range of 4mm:1ft scale buildings. Unveiled for the first time at the Festival of British Railway Modelling at Doncaster Racecourse on February 11/12, 2023, and sharing the same footprint as its ‘Pump / Boiler House’ kits (156 x 84mm), its new small industrial locomotive shed is designed for smaller OO gauge or OO9 gauge industrial locomotives. Available in two versions, with and without a roof-mounted water tank, the kits are available in a choice of brick or stone finishes.

Featuring laser-cut parts in a combination of 1mm, 2mm, and 3mm MDF, the models have internal roof trusses and smoke hood details, with the hoods leading to two covered vents on the roof. Further customisation is possible with two shapes of doors, both flat-bottomed (for inset track) and shaped to go around a raised trackbed.
The water tank version comes with an optional planked roof for the tank, and both kits include stone etched blanking panels to replace windows, if required.
All kits include JS Models' removable windows designed to make painting and glazing easier, laser-cut pre-shaped roof slate strips, acetate glazing material, and printed assembly instructions, illustrated in full colour.
