Restock of Sanders and Future releases

We have restocked the Tight Spot Sanders.

We’ve been busy working on new HO Scale kits. Here is what’s in the works.

Doors featuring Union Duplex fixtures and door tracks. These Mini Kits will have a pair of resin doors, etched door tracks, decals (ACL, MI, MP, T&P, SP.) and trust plates if applicable. We have developed all new patterns for the doors with the union Duplex Hardware in the following versions.

  • Youngstown Doors for 1932 ARA Boxcars.
  • Youngstown Doors for 1937 ARR Boxcars in 10′ and 10’6″ Heights
  • Superior Doors for 1937 ARR Boxcars in 10′ Height.
Etched Door Tracks for doors with Union Duplex Fixtures
10′ Height 7 panel Superior Doors with Union Duplex Fixtures

We have developed all new patterns for the more modern Duryea Underframe. This is the version used under many 1937 ARR cars etc. Here is a picture of the first test cast. We plan to include etched parts in addition to the resin bits.

We have all new patterns for the ends used on the B&O M55 series of Boxcars. We’re also working on the roof featured on these boxcars.

M55A, M55F, M55C

Last but not least we have Fish Belly Side Sills for the Tichy Boom Car. Tichy’s excellent Boom car has been around for many years but only builds as a car with a straight side sill. Many roads had similar cars but with fish belly side sills, these are a drop in replacement. This will be our next release.
