I am also using the Walthers HO trainshed for my Pittsburgh depot:

Other trainshed photos are included in the Photos Folder "B&O Layout".
I raised the height by using 3/16 inch Evergreen square tubing, and a "concrete
footer" consisting of a section of 1/4 inch tubing slipped over the 3/16 tubing.
The photos show only one shed, but I am constructing another, to create a total
trainshed length of almost four feet. I am not going to physically connect the
two sections of the shed -- just butt them together so that they can easily be
removed.
In fact, during operating sessions, when crews need to uncouple cars at the
depot, one of the trainsheds will be removed to improve access.
I have two through tracks under the trainshed, and one track on each outside
edge of the trainshed.
