KIT #6 BACKGROUND:

This kit was designed and produced in conjunction with the NYC System Historical Society.  The buildings are based on NYC drawings of their standard trackside structures.  The 12′ x 18′ Section House was placed every few miles to help with track maintenance; the privies (pit latrines) were needed for the inevitable call of nature; the switch cabin gave trainmen protection from weather at busy spots on the railroad. You will be proud to place several of these on the high iron and secondary lines around your pike.

This is a quality craftsman kit that needs some time and skill to complete.

Kit includes everything needed to build the structures shown, including detail castings.  It does not include scenery, glue, paint, and trackwork.
