The Hornby covered coal shed is designed to allow a coal wagon to be pushed inside. As the entrance to the shed is 3.5cm above the bottom of the model you will need to either construct an incline up to it or mount the building below the track level.
The detailing on this model is good with the usual mix of detail and weathered effect. It features metal lintels, metal gutter and drainpipe, and a pyramid shaped roof. The model has sandstone walls inside and out with a slate roof and a cobbled floor in the coal store. The metal lintels, guttering and drain pipes are painted in a deep red colour. Inside the coal shed there are two wooden platforms either side of where the track would go. The inside dimensions are 11cm long, 6.1cm wide and 5.5cm high (from the bottom of the track bed to the roof lintel.)
