May 2006 - New Goods Shed for Cudgewa (& hence for Shelley)




Wayyy back in 1998 when I built Cudgewa, I had a single black & white photo of the end of Cudgewa goods shed taken at a distance. I guessed it was corrugated iron. I guessed wrong. The dearth of published colour material since those relatively sparse days, and a growing photo collection has slowly convinced me to change it to prototype (albeit shorter of course) - wood and painted the same colour as the station buildings. So nearly 8 years later, using the plan I drew back in 1998 I have now built the replacement. The old corrugated iron goods shed will be relocated up to Shelley, as I have also found in the intervening years that the Shelley shed lasted much longer than I had originally thought.
