Chris,
Thank you for sharing your video with us. Menards engine house would make a fine addition to anyone's layout. I think you were very smart to purchase it. I believe it is a building that's going to find a home on many of the forum members layouts. Thanks again for letting us see it on your layout. Hope you have a wonderful weekend.
Yeah! what Jimmie said.
Looks very nice Chris. Enjoy. Are you happy with it? That is all that counts.
Thanks Guy's. It is a very nice building for the price with the LED lighting and the backlit sign. It's packed very well in a heavy box. Menards did everything right with this one including the packing! If your thinking about getting this building don't forget to order the power adapter for the lighting. It doesn't work off the transformer like we're use to.
Cool interior details.

Super nice Chris, for the price can't be beat. I have the Milwaukee shed but have not set it up on the layout since the Seattle & Yakima RR is in reconstruction.

Thanks, Chris.
that got me off the fence of indecision.
Very nice. I bought the adaptor that lights 3 buildings figuring I'd be buying more Menard's buildings in the future.
Looks great Chris, I think you may have embellished it a bit with the scenery.
Chris,
Now you have gone and done it, I am looking for one of these for my Street Car Barn, this looks like the way to go. Chris can the Ident sign be changed on the side of Barn, or is it a permanent fixture?

Didn't you see the long thread on the 30 included signs with the engine shed? You could also fire up your graphics application and make your own if you like.
Guns,
Missed the 30 included sign thread, this sounds better and better. You know me if it does not have a picture of a gun dog & L.C. Smith Shotgun on it, I probably missed it! At least according to my wife.

Thanks for the video, Chris. That logo sure looks familiar. Hmmm, I wonder why.
Very nice engine shed. Thanks for the video.

Hi Dave. The signs are stickers that you can peal off if you want to change the road name. Not sure if they can be re used or it's a one shot deal. I would say you could house 2 or even 3 trolleys depending on size of course.
John; I did do some scenery around it and just have a little more to go. I put the siding in once I measured to see if this monster would fit so that work was done while it was in transit from Manards.
