Kit No. 156 B&O Elevated Freight
House
The Baltimore & Ohio, like most major roads, used
structures built to a common standard. The standard for the 16’ x 40’ freight
house dates back to at least 1906, but it was likely adapted from an even
earlier design. Built in quantity along the B&O right of way over the years,
the structure is quite simple, yet has certain features which elevate it above a
plain freight depot giving it a presence and flair all its own. With its
elevated wooden dock, single stairway, and above average roof with slate
shingles, metal caps, and finials, the design offers a status befitting its
position in any town. This features laser-cut
parts with our usual Tab & Slot and Peel & Stick construction. The B
& O’s unique hip roof design has been captured to a tee including custom
made white metal roof caps and finials and laser-cut, Peel & Stick slate
style shingle strips. Also included is the elevated dock with its intricate
stairway, pre-cut wood legs, and laser scribed micro-thin 3-ply plywood deck.
When assembled, the freight house facility measures 7.5” Long x 4” Wide x 3.25”
High. - MSRP...$49.95

162K Bay Window Close-up
Kit No. 162 Sand Drying & Storage
Facility
This new kit is based
on a structure built in Coffeyville Kansas around 1919. Its function was to
receive "green" sand, dry it, and then deliver it into locomotive sand boxes.
The structure, which housed two sand dryers, is designed to service two tracks.
A sand bin is also included. Features all laser-cut parts, Peel & Stick
windows, doors, and trim, and detail parts for constructing the delivery pipe
system. Measures 7 5/8" L x 2 1/2" W x 5" H. -
MSRP...$34.95
Kit No. 163 CB&Q Standard Tool
Houses
Perhaps the most common structure found throughout the
CB&Q system, this Sectional Tool House design dates back to 1929. Almost
every section gang had at least one of these to house their tools, handcars or
their speeders. Quite similar in appearance to Tool Houses found on other roads,
examples of the original CB&Q Tool House still exist to day on the
Burlington Northern - Santa Fe. Features all laser-cut parts, Peel & Stick
windows, doors, and trim, and parts for building a traditional set-off. Two
complete kits per box. Each measures 2" L x 1 3/4" W x 1 1/2" H. (Includes 2
Tool Houses). - MSRP...$19.95

changing room, headframe with loading house and tailings trestle. Coal chutes
provided for both railcar loading and truck loading. Complete mine complex
measures 10"L x 9"W x 5"H. MSRP $62.95
Kit No. 166 Alton
Elevator
Like the other
grain elevators in our Country Grain Elevator Series, this kit is based on an
actual elevator, which happens to be located in a town called Alton in north
central Kansas. At the time this kit was designed, the Alton Elevator was still
standing. This structure was built with wood siding originally, but in later
years was covered in corrugated metal. Our kit represents the prototype's
as-built appearance and this general design could be found in other places
throughout the country too. However, this particular elevator is a bit unique in
appearance due to the small office building added to the side of the structure.
We have included this addition in our kit as well, but have left it separate
from the main structure. This offers the modeler the option of placing it on
either side of the elevator according to what best fits on their
layout.
The Alton Elevator kit
features 100% laser-cut components with our standard tab & slot wall and
roof construction and Peel & Stick trim, windows and doors. Peel & Stick
roofing material is also included with simulated metal roofing on the elevator
roof and diamond shaped asbestos type shingles on the office addition's roof,
which is further enhanced by white metal ridge caps and finial. Finishing off
the kit is a white metal flexible style grain spout. When fully assembled, the
Elevator with addition (as pictured) measures 6.5 inches long x 5.5 inches wide
x 10.5 inches high. MSRP $69.95

Kit No. 176 SP Two Story Combination Depot Type 22 “Left
Hand”
Over 70 Two Story Combination Type 22 depots were built by
the Southern Pacific Railroad between 1899 and 1910. They were more
commonly found in California, but examples were also located in Texas, Arizona,
Utah, Oregon, and Nevada. A prominent feature of the Type 22 depot is
the two-story high rectangular shaped bay window. The structure, which exhibited horizontal
wood siding, typically measured 25 feet wide. The second story, with the same width of 25
feet, was usually 32 feet in length or longer. The freight room was built long enough to
accommodate the SP’s anticipated business at that location and ranged in size
from 30 to 84 feet in length. Other variations between Type 22 depots also
existed such as loading dock size, window and door arrangements, and roof design
as well as mirrored floor plans. In fact, our latest SP depot offering is a
mirror image of our kit #124 Type 22 depot first released back in 1996. Examples of “left
handed” Type 22s could be found in California at La Verne, Palmdale, Grass Lake,
and Chatsworth.
Our structure kit displays a 25 foot wide by 38 foot 6 inch long
two-story portion with a 42 foot long freight room. As usual, the kit
is 100% laser-cut and utilizes Peel & Stick and Tab & Slot
construction.
Features include: 3-Tab shingles, loading dock, positionable
window sashes, visible rafter details, and accurately shaped brackets. Optional detail
parts include alternate front waiting room wall and bay ticket window and three
different chimney styles so the modeler can best match the model to the
prototype depot they are representing on their layout. Finished structure
measures 11” long x 3.5” wide x 4.5” high. The loading dock adds 5” to length and 1 “ to
width. MSRP
$129.95
Kit No. 177 IC Type A Depot
The Illinois Central built a series of new, smaller depots
during the post WWII era as a cost savings measure. Many of the
company’s older depots were in need of extensive repairs and the decline of
passenger service on several lines made it more economical to tear down the
original structure and then build a replacement out of new and salvaged
lumber. The
type “A”, represented by this kit, was one of the larger of the four standard
designs (the smaller type B depot is represented by our kit #124) measuring 36
feet 3 inches in length and 16 feet 3 inches wide at the end walls. It had a separate
waiting room for passengers, an office for the agent, and an
express-baggage-freight area. Our kit features pre-milled laser-cut siding;
Peel & Stick windows, doors, and trim; 3-Tab shingles; white metal chimney;
screen door; and pre-painted concrete style loading dock. As a bonus,
optional parts included with this kit allow the modeler to build a left or right
hand depot, entrance door canopy, and a ground level or dock high freight
door. Measures
5” long x 2.75” wide (with bay) x 2.25” high. MSRP $39.95
Kit No. 178 Midwest Farm Combo
This cost saving combo package includes three of our best
selling kits: the Country Barn, the Two-Story Farmhouse,
and Sonny’s Shack. Displayed together, they form a typical
midwestern family farm scene. All three kits feature 100% laser-cut parts
and our proven Peel & Stick and Tab & Slot technology for ease of
construction. Assembled, the Country Barn measures 7.5”
long x 5.5” wide x 5.75” high and includes optional dormers, the Two-Story
Farmhouse, with its attached rear kitchen and delicately detailed front porch,
measures 4.75” long x 4.5” wide x 4.25” high, and Sonny’s Shack, outfitted with
barn red colored tarpaper exclusive to this set, measures 4.5” long x 2.5” wide
x 1.75” long.
MSRP $129.95
Kit #179 PRR Standard Coal Trestle
The PRR, in
1907 (revised 1911), issued drawing number 59146 for a standard trestle design
to be used for the unloading of coal wherever on line customers required. The
bents beneath the rails helped to form storage bins into which hopper cars were
unloaded. The standard length was 75’ long, but the design could be extended to
whatever length was required by either terrain or the operator of the coal yard.
In reality, this unloading platform was nothing more than a light duty railroad
trestle. Our HO scale Coaling
Trestle features 100% laser-cut components so there is no need to cut bundles of
strip wood to size or use complicated jigs as found in other manufacturers’ kits
– all the hard work as been done by our lasers! The timbers have even been
pre-notched making assembly of the bents, stringers, and bracing a breeze. Also
included are laser-scribed boards for forming the coal bins beneath the trestle
and the walk ways, and delicate handrail, as well as Micro-Engineering code 70
rail and a combination gauge for keeping all the ties and rail properly spaced.
When finished, the 10” Long x 2.25” Wide x 2” High (over handrail) coal trestle
is ready for installation on your layout. MSRP $42.95
Kit #181 Coldwater Coal Company Yard
Typical of small community material yards, the Coldwater
Coal Company was the place that the local town's people and businesses could
purchase their heating coal as well as other commodities such as gravel and
sand. The kit includes a 24' x 18' yard office with truck scale, several
material bins, 120 scale feet of wood fencing, and a coal trestle based on a
Pennsylvania Railroad prototype. As usual with a LASERKIT, all structural
components of this kit are laser-cut and designed for ease of assembly. The yard
office features Peel & Stick windows, door, trim, and rolled roofing as well
as a white metal chimney and a laser-scribed and cut truck scale. Our Pennsy
trestle has 8 individual bents, which are easily constructed from precision
laser-cut and notched basswood components. The trestle also includes laser-cut
wood ties, handrail, and Micro Engineering Code 70 rail. The yard is designed to
adapt to almost any location on your layout. As pictured, the compound requires
an area 12" x 12" in size not counting the grading for the approach to the
trestle. MSRP $79.95
Kit #182 Union Pacific Standard 24' x 64' Single Story
Depot
This Union Pacific Railroad prototype dates back to the
Harriman era and represents one of the most common designs used by the railroad
beginning in 1900. Representatives of the 24' x 64' depot class could be found
in the states of Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska, and Wyoming and many lasted well
into the diesel era with a few examples still standing today. Unlike our earlier
UP depot Kit #127, which represents an Oregon Short Line version, this newly
designed right hand bay depot is configured with the UP's more commonly used
waiting room door and window arrangement. It features laser-cut roof brackets
and gable trusses, Peel & Stick 3-Tab shingles, an interior floor with wall
partitions, white metal chimneys, and a separate loading dock with ramp. The
finished structure measures 10" Long, x 3.5" Wide x 2.5"
High. MSRP $89.95
Kit #183 ATSF Standard Telephone Booths
According to John Signor, editor of the Warbonnet, the
Official Magazine of the Santa Fe Railway Historical & Modeling Society,
"Common on Santa Fe lines throughout the system, in an age before radio
communications, these little six-sided wooden phone booths were placed near
telegraph lines at points where train crews might need to contact the dispatcher
- typically ends of sidings, junctions, or points where spurs or drill tracks
entered the main line." Furthermore, similar looking prototypes to our latest
lineside structure kit once populated the right of ways of many other US
railroads as well. Kit #183 includes three (3) telephone booths that uniquely
feature the walls and roof cut from one piece of our Resin-ply material, which
fold up to make the basic structure. Wall battens, trim, window, and door use
our Peel & Stick technology and are applied over the assembled shell. We've
designed the layout of the parts sheets so the components can all be pre-painted
by the modeler and, once dry, a phone booth can be constructed in only a matter
of minutes! Each assembled phone booth measures 0.75" long x 0.75" wide x 1.5"
high. MSRP $19.95
Kit #184 The Drinkwater Place
Small rural farms are rapidly becoming a thing of the past.
In the depression era, people often depended on farming as their only means of
survival; growing their own food and selling anything that was left over.
Located in Southeast Missouri, the Drinkwater Place was just such a farm. Its
distinctive 1920s era house serves as the basis for our latest HO scale wood
frame residence. Traditional farmhouses like kit #184 could be practically found
anywhere in North America with examples seen over a wide geographic range.
Because of this, our kit will build into a family dwelling that will fit on
nearly any model railroad layout. The Drinkwater Place features our usual Tab
and Slot construction as well as Peel & Stick windows, doors, trim, and
rolled roofing. The front porch displays fine laser-cut railings and balusters
with see-through latticework beneath the scribed wood deck. There is also an
add-on kitchen in the rear, white metal chimneys, and a couple of laser-cut
window fans for added detail. The finished structure measures 3" long x 5" wide
x 4.25" high. MSRP $39.95
PRR
STANDARD STRUCTURES
The Pennsylvania Railroad was the largest
railroad by traffic and revenue volumes in the US throughout its 20th-century
existence and, at its peak, controlled some 10,000 miles of rail line. As such,
the Pennsy became known as the “Standard Railroad of the World” not only for the
standard to which all other railroads could aspire, but standard in its
equipment and structure designs as well. Several of our newest HO scale
structure kit releases are based on these PRR standard prototypes that not only
are a must for every Pennsy fan’s layout, but will look right at home on any
model railroad dating from the early 1900s through the 1960s.
MO Tower is based on the structure built at Cresson, Pennsylvania in 1899 where it stood on the mainline between Pittsburgh and Altoona at milepost marker 250.5. Our rendering of this famous facility specifically portrays the interlocking tower as it appeared from the 1940’s until just prior to its closing in 1994. Despite efforts to save the real MO Tower for historical preservation, the building collapsed while moving it off railroad property and was sadly demolished on December 7, 1998. The basic design of MO Tower was also built in many sizes and variations at locations all along the PRR right of way. Other examples of towers following this basic arrangement included: Mantua Junction, Hestonville, Ship Road, Caln, Dillersville Junction, Steelton, Port Royal, Ardenheim, Gallitzin, Portage, Johnstown, and Metuchen.
The LASERKIT MO Tower has been meticulously recreated in HO scale using the original 1899 PRR plans as well as photographs and sketches supplied to us by a number of Pennsy enthusiasts. Kit #185 also has a number of new engineering concepts and model building features incorporated into it in an effort to maintain our reputation for enjoyable and easy to build craftsman style kits, yet provide the modeler with an accurately detailed structure they will be proud to display on their layout. This kit presented several design engineering problems, the first of which is the free-standing stairs with their “lacy” hand rails and overall appearance. Stair towers can be a real pain sometimes to assemble causing the modeler much frustration. Therefore, we have developed our Bild-Strate method of construction, just for such situations. The “footer” components are tabbed into their stock sheet, and left there until the stairs, risers, and stair tower are completed. This assures that, with reasonable care, the modeler doesn’t have to use miniature squares, jigs, or have to glue the parts together on wax paper spread over printed templates. This Bild-Strate design positions all of the pieces in such a manner that they literally align themselves during construction leaving little room for modeler error. Another challenge, the second floor with its abundance of tall and wide windows, required a new method of producing peel & stick sashes that would be uncomplicated to build, but still maintain the delicate look of the prototype. So, our second story “window walls” are layered together before they are joined to the first floor, allowing the modeler to bench build the walls, install the sashes and glazing, then place the assembled walls together on top of the first floor structure.
Furthermore, all of the prototype’s gingerbread style trim, decorative rafter ends and second floor corbels are delicately modeled and give the HO scale rendering that authentic Pennsy appearance. The kit also has “knock-outs” on the first floor, so that our soon to be released Interlocking Components may be retrofitted to the existing structure. Finally, we have designed and produced a new resin casting for the two-story plus height chimney. For several years, we have been listening to the PRR modelers, both at shows and through emails and discussion groups. Our decision to produce this kit was based upon the PRR modeler’s expressed need for a high quality, scale correct tower kit appropriate for the popular modeled steam to diesel transition era through the reign of Conrail. We feel that this kit fulfills that request. Assembled Tower with stairs measures 5” long x 3” wide x 4.5” high. MSRP...$112.95
The following two offerings
are referred to as Watch Boxes, which were structures placed at grade crossings
where no automatic crossing gate existed. The railroad watch box was nothing
more than a simple shelter for the railroad employee who watched for oncoming
trains and halted any road traffic approaching the crossing. While small in
size, these particular watch boxes still maintained a sense of PRR styling just
the same, which we have captured in our HO scale renderings:
Kit #186 1911 Standard Watch Box
The revised 1911 design features a board and batten
construction and includes Peel & Stick windows, doors, and trim, rolled
roofing, exposed rafter tails, white metal smoke jack, and accurate end
brackets. Two (2) complete Watch Boxes per kit! Built-up, the HO scale Watch Box
measures 1 “Long x 0.75” Wide x 1.5” High. MSRP $23.95
Kit #187 1879 Standard Watch Box

Watch Box measures 1 “Long x 0.75” Wide x 1.5” High. MSRP $22.95
Over the years Northern Pacific used several different series of standard plans for various types of depots. Most of the plans were of combination depots containing passenger and freight facilities. Each series had several different sizes of depots and included both one-story and two-story structures. In the years 1889 through 1899, Chief Engineer J. W. Kendrick directed the preparation of a group of plans referred to as the S-26 drawing series. The series included plans for three different lengths of one-story depots with each length having two versions. One version had a low platform and the other had a high platform. The longest one story frame combination depot in the S-26 series was 75 feet 8 inches long by 24 feet deep. The low platform variant was called the Class A depot, as already represented in HO scale by our laser-cut kit #149. The smallest version with low platform, the Class C Combination Depot and the subject of this new kit release, was 55 feet long by 24 feet deep. The Class C prototype basically saw the elimination of the waiting room found on the larger class as well as utilized a smaller operator’s bay with several changes in door and window positions too.
Our HO scale rendering of the Class C Combination Depot features 100% laser-cut parts including Tab & Slotted wall and roof components, Peel & Stick windows, doors, and trim, authentic roof and gable brackets, interior floor with wall partitions, white metal chimney, Peel & Stick 3-tab style shingles, and color signage. The assembled structure measures 7.75” Long x 3.75” Wide x 3” High. MSRP...$79.95
Kit #189
Garner's Market
While chain food retailers such as Kroger, the Great Atlantic and Pacific Tea Company (A&P), Piggly Wiggly, and American Stores had a strong foothold in many regions of the United States by the early 1920s, the old mom and pop grocers were still plentiful serving both small and large communities alike. Originally, these grocers sold what was referred to as “dry goods”, which were made up of canned foods and other non-perishable staples, with meat and produce sold by separate venders. However, this began to change by the early 1940s as food merchants consolidated vendors so all products could be sold under one roof for the sake of convenience. Some of the first grocers to implement these early “supermarkets” were the mom and pop stores as represented by our Garner’s Market kit.
Started in 1918 by the Garner brothers of St. Louis, Missouri, the two-story frame structure lasted as a grocery store until the late 1950s when the big chain retailers finally did in the family run business. Inside, during its heyday, shoppers found a butcher to custom cut their meats, delicious breads and cakes in the bakery, and a full selection of fresh fruits and vegetables along with the usual dry goods. This is all reflected in our kit too with its many colorful advertising signs, large billboard, and produce crates positioned right out in front on the sidewalk inviting the residents of your HO scale community to take a look inside.
Kit #189 features 100% laser-cut components, Tab & Slot and Peel & Stick construction, a detailed external stairway to the second floor, interior floors and wall partitions, a free standing billboard that may be positioned on the roof as shown or beside the building, laser-scribed and cut sidewalk, numerous resin and white metal detail parts, printed window shades, laser-cut curtains, and laser-cut window awnings. Assembled structure (without sidewalk) measures 7.25 “ long x 3.75” wide x 3.25” high. MSRP $62.95
HO Kit #190 Farm Silo with Shed
Kit number 190 is our interpretation of the classic Stave Silo, variations of which are still seen doted across the breadbasket of America. Our easy to construct silo is based on a typical 50 foot high x 20 foot diameter vertical structure. The Stave silo was constructed using wood or concrete planks that were then tightly banded together to form a ring. To increase the strength toward the bottom of a silo, bands were installed at greater frequency. The typical use of this type of silo is not for the storage of harvested grain, but for the creation of feed called silage. Silage is made from grass crops, including corn or other cereals, using the entire green plant (not just the grain). The plant is then shredded and blown into the silo through the fill tube on the side. Once loaded, the top is covered in plastic and is allowed to ferment. The farmer would then unload the silage through the large unloading chute on the side and feed it to cud-chewing animals like cattle and sheep during the winter. The unloading chute typically discharged into a small house at the bottom, as on our kit, or directly into the barn.
The Farm Silo with Shed kit features 100% laser-cut wood components for a perfect fit plusTabbed & Slotted construction with Peel & Stick windows, doors, trim, roofing material, and support bands for ease of assembly. Detail parts include cast resin dome and unloading chute as well as plastic filler tube, laser-cut access ladder, white metal band clamps, and laser-etched “cracked” glazing offering the Shed an aged look. The Silo may be finished as either a wood or concrete structure and with or without shed. When assembled, the Silo with Shed measure 4 inches long x 3 inches wide x 8.5 inches high and compliments our very popular #178 Midwest Farm Combo or #119 Country Barn kits. MSRP...$49.95

Kit #723 All-American Service Station
It wasn’t until Henry Ford introduced the first automobile that the middle class family could afford, the Model T, that the need for a refueling or filling station began to rise. The US’s very first purpose-built gas station appeared in 1905 along Theresa Avenue in St. Louis, Missouri and from that time forward through the 1950s, the service station industry flourished as more and more Americans fell in love with the automobile. Today, the roadside gas station has become synonymous in the US’s historical pop culture with the likes of the ’57 Chevy and Route 66 achieving a level of immortality for post World War Two generations despite their rapid disappearance from our street corners in more recent years.
In an effort to honor these now iconic institutions, American Model Builders is proud to announce our latest addition to the HO scale lineup: the All-American Service Station, which includes both the office and service garage. Based on a facility located in Harlingen, Texas in the late 1930s, our structure kit exemplifies a standard cottage style architectural design found throughout the US and Canada. With the entire complex measuring 5.5” long x 6” wide x 2.25” high , the 100% laser-cut buildings features our Tab & Slot and Peel & Stick construction with scribed siding, simulated metal roofing on the office and rolled roofing on the garage, interior floors, and intricate, lattice fencing connecting the two buildings. Detail parts consist of white metal pumps displaying pump handles and hoses, cast resin oil can rack, coin operated soda chest, and elevated oil tank, and laser-cut island with 2.25” tall stylized station sign. Full color signs for four different brands of gasoline companies as well as other assorted printed gas station paraphernalia are included too.
