Save & Close

Lumber Loads by the train loads! Pre-Orders are due.

Lumber Loads from Wheels of Time for the HO scale modeler is coming! Pre-orders are due. We will give a few days of grace period since we are late in sending out a reminder notice.

See your dealer or reserve directly with us! Thank you! 

Here is a photo of a Golden West Service bulkhead flatcar (outside link). Noticed the vertical boards (stickers) on the very top right side of the load -  marking the midpoint of the flatcar allowing the forklift operator to load the car properly.

Fresh from the factory

Here is a photo of our Wheels of Time 62-ft Gunderson Bulkhead Flatcar in Cotton Belt markings. Current status: factory production. Enjoy!

More awesome baggage-horse cars

We want to build models that are true to life. While it's true that you won't see most of the undercarriage details of these horse cars unless you pick it up. We want a car that is faithful to the real McCoy as much as possible and so we went all out - a little bit crazy. Take for instance, on the as-built cars: the UC brake system or for the rebuilt cars: the D-22-P brakes; the 380 gallon (A.P.W.S.) water tank and "belt" driven generator. Other details we are proud of which took time to design and make are the little individual box vents along the side of clerestory roof, the separately applied hand holds, proper side depth of door frame around the baggage doors, and all the rivets you can count (until your heart is content). These are details that will pop out and aren't compromised. You can be proud to have one running on your layout soon (in feverish production at the factory right now) and own a little piece of interesting railroading history. Enjoy the photos in the meantime. Go here to see them all.
