Precision Scale has 2 projects that will be delivered in the next few weeks. The first is class G-6ps 4-6-0 steam engines for Milw Road. These models will have the same streamlined styling that came to define Milwaukee Road passenger service in the mid 1900s. These engines are especially important for those modeling the secondary passenger trains, such as the Hiawatha-North Woods Service / North Woods Hiawatha,
Filling in the rosters for our early era northwest modelers, North Bank Lines has delivered early truss rod wood cabooses for GN and SP&S. There are 25 foot and 33 foot versions and are available in both mineral brown and bright red paint schemes.
Now available from The Coach Yard are a series of heavyweight based business cars. The first group is a secondary run of Santa Fe cars, these are follow up to a first phase delivered last year. The second group contains cars for Southern Pacific. The SP cars cover several different operating eras, from the 1950s to the 1980s.
We now have in hand 2-6-6-6 Allegheny steam engines for C&O and VGN. These state of the art pieces from Precision Scale continue the work of Boo-Rim in producing new works of art. The latest drive train machining and Swiss motor design provide a solid machine to carry an extensive array of refinements:
After several years of delays, and a change in builders, Division Point has produced the first part of the F-M C Liner diesels. This first batch includes models for NH, Milw and PRR. The second batch is probably another 3 to 6 months away. This grouping will cover CN, CP, Demos, LIRR and NYC.
Now in stock from Precision Scale are the Lehigh Valley streamlined 4-6-2 Pacifics for the John Wilkes and Black Diamond trains. These engines epitomize the flash and style of the stream styled era.
Needing improved performance from their H-7 class Mikados, New York Central and Lima, in 1922, created the H-10 class engines. A larger firebox grate, a feedwater heater, larger cylinders, lightweight rods, and a booster created an engine that could both out-pull and out-run the H-7. Division Point has used the latest in production techniques to produce its own version of superior H-10 2-8-2s.
Southern Pacific ran a mail train on its coast route that was affectionately referred to as 'Sad Sam'. The Coach Yard has delivered a variety of baggage cars and sets for this train and other mail and express service. The sets have sold out, but we still have a variety of the baggage cars in stock.
Now in from Precision Scale are the Baldwin 2-6-6-2T steam engines. Strong demand drove a quick development cycle and the high interest has shown in the quick sales of these models. Beautifully done, these models cover their lives from the Weyerhauser era through Rayonier and handful of other colorful enterprises. Each model shows the unique details for its owner, along with paint and lettering changes. For those who are undecided, we still have one unit which is fully painted and not finished - but with a set of decals to produce most of the schemes - you get to choose!
Alco RS-2 / RS-3 engines have been delivered by Division Point. ATM did a terrific job on these models. With some help from the Alco afficianados out there, these pieces have brought a new fidelity to prototype and beautiful engineering, Some of the nuances incorporated into these models include:
