James Roberts' S layout in Nashville, Indiana. The photo depicts a scene outside of the town of Helmsburg IN in the early 1950's on the Indianapolis Southern Division of the Illinois Central. The station burned in '55 so James scratchbuilt this one using old photos. The cabin and trailer are from BTS (Bill's Train Shop). The old wooden boxcar was built by Richard Fleming an On3 modeler in Michigan. The layout is about 15% complete. It will encircle an "L" shaped basement room about 20' by 22'. |

Howdy Friends
It has been a couple of years since we took a hard look at our kit
pricing, and during that time our wood, casting metal, utilites, boxes,
and other production costs have all had some intense price increases....
some of them several times!
Later this month we will be increasing the prices on most all existing S
scale One-Niters and Structures from 5-15%. You can order for the list
below over the next couple of weeks and save some green! But don't wait
too long!
