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:
Fans of heavyweight trains have a new star. The Coach Yard has SP Sunset Limited trains arriving. There are 2 versions for 1939-1947(Southern Pacific Lines) and 1948 on (Southern Pacific), along with a variety of individual cars.
After 2 decades of the finest work, W&R Enterprises has delivered their last project. The second phase of the heavyweight cars for NP and Pullman are now in stock. These will help you fill in the missing pieces for your Northwest region trains, along with these baggage, postal and coach cars from the first section.
The pickup has been received from Division Point for the Alco RS series engines. This large project will be produced in phases. The first set of engines will be arriving quite soon. Plans are for the remaining engines to be done 6 to 12 months from now.
Precision Scale has produced some very unique models of late and have now delivered the Frisco Firefly passenger cars. These are a companion match to the streamlined Firefly 4-6-2 steam engines delivered in early 2013.
Division Point has been working on heavyweight cars for Norfolk & Western for several years. The last pieces of this project will be arriving soon. These PG class coaches will be available in both Tuscan and Blue paint schemes. These will be a nice complement to the previously produced cars, including RPOs, baggage cars, diners and business cars.
The The Abraham Lincoln Funeral Train in HO scale from Precision Scale has been delivered. The model is unique with its later 1800's paintwork and will be a rare gem, on par with the Centennial sets previously produced.
