Features: Back when America moved by horses instead of horsepower, the local feed mill was an important trackside business in towns of every size. Here, all types of grains were ground for animal feed, then bagged for easier handling and storage. They're still going strong in areas where livestock and dairy production requires a constant supply of feed. Others serve suburban customers with pet foods, bird food, lawn and garden supplies and more. This detailed model is complete with authentic "wooden" drop siding, a larger dust collector for the roof, rail and truck/wagon unloading docks and colorful decals. 8 x 2-3/4 x 4-1/4 (20 x 6-4/5 X 10-3/5cm).

Features: The Cornerstone N Scale Clarkesville Depot is typical of wooden depots built throughout North America after 1900. Many railroads adopted standard depot designs that they used throughout their systems, and it was not uncommon for railroads to have several nearly identical depots along a line. This depot can be built to represent either an eastern or a western style station and will make a great stop for your road's passenger trains.

Features: * Not too long ago, stations like Al's could be found at every busy city intersection and along most major highways. Premium was 25 cents a gallon, maps were free, restrooms were clean. There was a mechanic on duty who could fix anything. And Al always wore a spotless uniform when he came out to pump your gas, check the oil and wash the windows. * Introduced in the late 1930s, box style stations like this sprang up from coast to coast and remained a standard well into the 1950s. Combining the office, restrooms and service bays into one structure, they provided a uniform, neat appearance that attracted motorists. Lots of windows made them bright and cheerful, as d

Features: * Put big action in a small space with this exciting new industry on your railroad. With today's "just in time" coal delivery, meeting customer schedules demands equipment that's up to the job. Now in use in both eastern and western coal fields, these big buildings are essentially storage silos that hold tons of coal for reloading unit trains. Since the actual mine and processing operations are often miles away, this building and conveyor can be placed trackside, to imply the presence of a bigger mine operation located off your layout. * The basic building includes a variety of roof-top machinery that puts realistic detail in this highly visible location.

Features: * Finding oil is hard work - and so is getting it out of the ground. If the oil is thin enough and there's enough underground pressure, it may flow into the well on its own. This may continue for a few hours or a few years, but in time, the pressure drops. Today, nearly 95% of all US oil wells require pumps to stay in production and one of the most common is the walking beam or "horse head.". * Seen alone or in groups wherever oil is found, this new kit is a great way to model a part of this vital industry anywhere on your layout. It's typical of American designs in use since the 1920s and includes a detailed stationary diesel power plant, walking beam, rear cran

Features: * Say the word steel to even the most casual observer and they picture these towering giants. Looming hundreds of feet into the skyline, their maze of pipes and equipment stands in stark contrast to the lines of newer buildings. Running nonstop, no other part of a steel works generates as much rail traffic. Hoppers bring up load after load of iron ore or taconite, coke and limestone. Hot metal cars carry the molten steel to the converters, while slag cars take their loads to the dump. * At last, here's a model that captures the power of the prototype and still fits the average layout. This complete kit includes the furnace, stoves, dust collectors and cleaning sy

Features: * Grain elevators are one of the most common rail-served businesses. Steel-sided elevators appeared early in the 20th century when corrugated metal siding became an affordable exterior building material. Many older wooden elevators were later resided with metal as it was more weather -resistant and less flammable. * You'll still see buildings like the Valley Growers Association along the tracks today. The kit includes a corrugated metal grain elevator with a loading tunnel, ramps and positionable sliding doors; a clapboard office, a wooden grain storage bin and realistic decals.

Features: * For generations of travelers, Union Station was the magical gateway to and from the world. Here is where the journeys of the finest trains on the line started and ended. Where travelers rushed to make their connections. And thousands of commuters began and ended their workday. * Where space was limited in larger towns and cities, two or more railroads would often combine their resources to build and operate major terminal stations. Monuments to the power and success of railroading, they also projected the spirit of the community they served and the promise of excellent service for anyone who traveled by train. Now, Walthers unveils the Union Station, a fitting

Tall walkways allowed passengers fast and easy access to and from trains. The hard surface made it easy to wheel baggage and mail carts into place, as well as supplies for the diner or other cars. And since no one liked being too wet or warm, a roof provided some protection from the elements. * As an alternate to costly train sheds, American railroads tried three distinct styles of station platforms including the Busch, Umbrella and Butterfly types. Of these, the Butterfly (so named becaus

Features: * Matches #933-3260. * Authentic American Prototype. * Holds Engines up to 145 Scale Feet Long. * Compact 10 Stall Spacing. * Fine Window Details. * Floor Inspection Pits. * Decal Signs Included. * Though engines started getting bigger early in the 20th century, no one could foresee the monsters that were in regular service by the 1940s.

This conversion kit adds three matching stalls to the Modern Roundhouse (933-3260, sold separately). With additional kits, you can expand the basic building to any size your railroad requires.

Features: * Authentic Concrete Design. * Serves Three Tracks. * Coal Delivery Shed. * Loaded with Separate Details. * Decal Signs Included. * As larger engines entered service, many railroads found their older coaling towers couldn't handle the increased demand. By the 1920s, railroads began contracting with outside firms to build new coaling towers. Concrete was the material of choice as it was easy to use, affordable, fireproof and weatherproof. * Based on an Ogle design, the Modern Coaling Tower will be a focal point in any engine terminal. And towers like this were also built on the mainline to refuel engines on the road. The model features realistic "concrete" walls p
