FEATURES:
This kit is the first in a
series of 7/8” to 12” – or 7/8n2 -- scale models developed as a joint endeavor
of HARTFORD PRODUCTS and SIERRA VALLEY ENTERPRISES. The series
consists of small mining, industrial, and logging rolling stock and detail parts
based on 24” gauge prototypes. Some cars will be accurate scale replicas of
equipment found around the turn of the century in the United States, while other
kits will be “free-lance”, but will follow standard design and construction
techniques in use during that era. This first kit is free lance and was
inspired by small cars used to carry cargo or for maintenance-of-way duties on
small railroads a century ago. A gondola kit (SEC-02), using this car as the
base, is also available.
Rolling stock in kit form, as well as trucks, pedestals, couplers and other detail parts, are available from HARTFORD PRODUCTS. SIERRA VALLEY can provide rolling stock, including custom modifications, in ready-to-run form.
