Model 9623 Lineside Tool and Supply Freight Shed back view
The model 9623 Lineside Tool and Supply Freight Shed is the 1:20.3 scale cousin of the 1:24 scale model 9604 Lineside Tool and Supply Shed introduced years ago! It also is a charming structure that features a board and batten structure built on a raised platform. The shed has three movable doors; two standard doors, and a third, is a sliding freight door. You can also obtain the supply shed with a corrugated metal, tar paper roof, or cedar shingles. The platform is of a traditional post and sill design, however a stacked timber design, similar to the 9604 version is also available. There is a rear stairway to ground level, and a dock area to load or unload wagons or trucks. The entire structure is made of redwood and cedar and double stained inside and out. This structure can be used anywhere on the railway, in the rail yard area, alongside the mainline, or at the end of a siding. With the addition of some tools, crates, and people, you have a perfect lineside scene without having to tear up and redesign your layout.

This structure originated from a request by Matt Brown, owner of the Slate Creek Railway in North Carolina. His railway required all structures to be of 1:20.3 scale and felt that the 9603 Lineside Tool & Supply Freight Shed with a larger platform would be a perfect fit! PCGRS is committed to helping the customer get what they want, instead of having to settle for what only is available! So with a little design work, we have a new structure to offer the public, and Matt has a structure that fits his needs!
.
The lineside tool and supply freight shed with the standard platform requires a space that is 22 1/2" long and 10" deep. The optional platform requires a space 26 1/2" long and 14 1/2" deep. The platform should be placed away from the track based upon your widest piece of rolling stock. The weight of this structure is about six pounds. As with all our structures, each Lineside Tool and Supply Freight Shed is stamped with its own serial number.
This photo gives one some perspective of the size difference between 1:20.3 and 1:24 scales. Although the platforms are of different designs and dimensions, the shed dimensions only differ by the scale they were designed in. 1:20.3 structures are 18% larger in all dimensions and 64% larger in volume, which makes shipping a challenge!
