This is just a quick heads up for some of you awaiting orders. We had a computer crash last week that is just now being resolved. We are sorry for the delay. Most orders are now printed and ther rest will be done today. we will be shipping tomorrow.
Once again I'm sorry about any inconvienance. I know you can't wait to get started.
Just a reminder. We do not keep much stock on hand. We print on demand so that we can controle the quality and make updates. Unfortunatly this means we do not ship the same day we recieve your order.
Thanks for your patience.

Today I was up in Milwaukee and had a chance to visit a bit with John Kosma and see with my own eyes the latest additions to the Gypsy trolly. The pix don't do it justice, just beautiful. John was able to take me around to a couple of local hobby shops. We stoped over at Greenfield news and hobby. What a great store. I had no idea it was so big and well stocked. It's always good to see people who sell our kits face to face. We also made a stop at Walthers and i had a chance to re connect with thier merchandising guy Bob. We had a good talk and we are hoping that we will soon be able to be available to a wider hobby community.
Not a bad monday.

Based on input from several people, including bro Dave. I am settling the name for this as "The Turbine house" Very similar structures are used to house pumps, electrical switches, turbines, ventilators and even telephone switches.
Also due to my brotheres reminising. I have added a short set of concrete steps and raised the door. Apparently there is a building just like this in our old hood where he and dad watched the old Pennsy tracks (being the younger, I was not born yet)
Off it goes today for a test build. It should be available by next week in O and other scales shortly after. The O scale price will be $32
Back to the limited edition engine house. Thats almost done as well.

While we can't attend ourselves, our good friends Terry and Sue from St Charles model works will be there and they will have a few O scale kits available for sale. So if you happen to be there, be sure to stop and say hi.
