To my very unpracticed eye, Larry, that looks superb. It suggests some out of the ordinary incident which has lead to a repair. Perhaps, stone not being available, the brick carrying vehicle that hit it just left enough of the evidence for the local brickies to do the job.......The stone-clad cattle platform was sprayed and weathered today to match other things. I didn't cover the brickwork with stone work right to the end because I intended cutting that bit off. However, I quite like the way the bricks look, so it could be repairs or sommat...
Is that toilet block real? If it's a model it is unbelievably good. I do beleive you are on the right track there.
Stone is seen on the handsome Llanidloes & Newtown station building at Llanidloes while the more usual brownish-orange brick was used to build the goods shed. It contrasts with the red brick of the signal box, which is more reminiscent of GWR buildings constructed after the 1880's....

I am still in two minds about the sandstone brick around the base. They could be engineering blue brick...
I think you have something there. The base courses have now been painted red while leaving the beveled bricks sandstone, and immediately it all look right.The building is looking very good Larry.
I'd copy Llanfyllin. Paint the four base courses the same colour as the building brick and the bevelled bricks sandstone. If it doesn't look right paint the bevelled bricks either brown, darker red, engineering blue or cream.
