Model Railway Scenery Review - Garden Shed

Hornby Skaledale Garden Shed – R8576   Rating 7/10

Review: The Hornby Skaledale Garden Shed is very impressive when it comes to it’s detailing. It looks extremely realistic to a Garden Shed you would find at the bottom of your own garden. The sides of the shed have finely wooden detailing which makes the whole shed look made out of wood.

The door of the shed has even been made with fine detailing including hinges. Hornby have even got and put some detailing on the roof. The shed isn’t light in weight but doesn’t feel too heavy.

I was a little sceptical when opening the box, as the picture on the front looked great, but I was wrong to be sceptical as the actual shed looks like the picture. It looks fabulous. I can’t wait to be able to buy this little shed and add it to my model railway.

What impressed me the most about this Garden Shed was that in my experience most scenery items produced from Hornby were made of plastic and didn’t look very realistic compare to the model train they have created, but it appears that Hornby have actually paid some great attention to the fact that model railway fans want their model railway to look realistic across the board.
