In the 2013 Ameri-Towne catalog it's stated that this building, #941, can have a rail siding run inside the building. For any of you who have this building, wpuld a siding made with Fastrack fit without modification to the building? If yes, what's the height from top of Fastrack rails to bottom edge of building's siding opening and how far does track extend into the building?

I'll take some measurements of the rail door and publish them tomorrow.

When you build the 941 Barrettsburg Kit, you will cut the rail siding door out of this part of the kit. If you don't want a rail siding in the building, you just don't do this step.
When you cut the opening, it will end up to be 4.25" high and 4.125" wide. All of the pre-ballasted track (FastTrack, RealTrax, etc.) will fit within this width. The widest part of the ballast on these various brands of track is between 3" and 3.5" and the door is 4.125" wide.
You are good to go!
