O/On3/On30 Scale railroad camp - the office/warehouse
kit number 306
$235 each plus shipping
This O Scale release of railroad camp is visually very true to the HO Scale design
introduced in 2002. It was important to preserve the look and feel of that original kit.
Nick Ogden created the beautiful stone wall masters and Karl adapted them for use here.
The resin stone wall castings feature interlocking corners for ultimate realism, no seams!
Laser cut sub walls combined with my comprehensive instructions and simple techniques
for board on board
construction means any modeler can achieve results to be proud of.
I have been teaching and refining these techniques for decades. You will feel
comfortable with them quickly. The appearance of railroad camp relies heavily upon
these modeling techniques. Commercial milled wood siding could never reproduce
the stunning realism pictured here. This has been a hallmark of every SierraWest kit!
Details make the scene come alive. Seriously, without them it is just not a diorama!
As is typical with all my kits since the very beginning, I loaded railroad camp up with
the highest quality resin and white metal details found anywhere. Made here by me,
the crispness and clarity is second to none. All the junk and clutter pictured is included,
along with the best instructions for painting and weathering them that you will find.
Straight forward and realistic in the methodology, these techniques have been
developed and refined over many years using paint and artists chalk. All modelers will
be very satisfied with the materials and techniques utilized to finish the kit.
Customers new to my kits will find it a fantastic way to improve their skills and
gain valuable experience with new techniques and tools.
Laser cut windows and window glass make construction simple. Additional laser cut
components includes wooden shingles and cutting and positioning jigs for rafters,
fascia, window frames, etc... These laser cut jigs were invented by me and first used over
7 years ago in my original O Scale kit. I use my lasers as an aid to improve and help your
modeling, not a substitute. This is very important! You will never improve your modeling
skills if you only build kits where the laser has done all the work for you. Take your time
and study the photographs, you will not find the tell tale signs of the laser. Crafting a
realistic scene like railroad camp relies upon the perfect combination of design, individual
details and award wining techniques. More of my customers win awards at the National
train shows with SierraWest kits
than
any other manufacturer...

Customers ask me all the time if these kits are difficult to build. The answer is NO!
They also inquire if a newbie can put it together. Yes they can.

and tons

large clear photographs presented in a beautifully spiral bound manual.
