While most roads had one major backshop, the prototypes for the Walthers Cornerstone Machine Shop allowed railroads to make repairs at outlying terminals since it was often faster, more cost-effective and got the locomotives back on the road and earning their keep. As new engine terminals were built, most received a machine shop capable of handling just about any type of repair that might be needed. This kit matches the design of the Modern Roundhouse (933-3260, sold separately), and can be built as an attached or freestanding building. It also includes a boiler house, which would supply steam, electricity and compressed air to the entire facility. Large roll-up doors can be built open or closed, and the baseplate of the Machine Shop kit has slots that accept popular rail sizes. The Machine Shop is one of many Cornerstone N Scale railroad buildings. As shown the Machine Shop measures: 8-1/8 x 5-1/4 x 6-1/2" 20.6 x 13.3 x 16.5cm Authentic North American prototype Use with late steam and diesel-era layouts Matches design of Walthers Modern Roundhouse kit Separate windows Floor baseplate accepts popular rail sizes Molded in appropriate colors plus clear window glazing More Information Item # 933-3264 Brand Walthers Cornerstone  Scale N Type Building Kit Size 8-1/8 x 5-1/4 x 6-1/2" or 20.6 x 13.3 x 16.5cm Availability In-Stock/Restockable TCA Grading C-10 Mint - Brand New Instruction Sheet View/Download

Add aggregate traffic to your layout with this rugged trackside structure. The Walthers Cornerstone Glacier Gravel Co. is a model of a stone crusher-washer with equipment for loading rail cars or trucks. Railroads have an enormous appetite for crushed rock. A mile of mainline can gobble up thousands of tons. Glacier Gravel Co. will help satisfy your railroads appetite for rock. This easy-to-build kit looks great as part of a stone quarry operation, alongside mines like the New River Mining Co. 933-3221 and Coal Flood Loader 933-3247, in a mine, or as part of a slag recovery operation down the track from the steel mill buildings. Detailed parts capture the look of concrete and steel construction. The kit features corrugated construction on a heavy poured concrete foundation/loading tunnel. Conveyors to a truck dump and feeder from the quarry complete the facility. Rock crushers similar to this have been in use since the 1940s, so Glacier Gravel Co. will fit perfectly into transition and modern era layouts.

In 2023, we are building our third production run of USRA Heavy and Light Pacifics.   There were 20 original Heavy Pacifics built in 1919 for the USRA program, and all 20 went to Erie Railroad.  From 1923, numerous copies were built, and many railroads operated similar locomotives.  There were 81 original Light Pacifics built in 1919, and these were delivered to ACL, B&O, GTW, M&O (GM&O), and L&N.  Subsequently, each of these railroads built copies, and several other railroads operated locomotives with similar dimensions and equipment.  The Light Pacifics were limited to 54,000 lbs load per axle, versus 60,000 for the Heavy Pacifics, and this allowed the Light Pacifics to run on most main lines.  Our Heavy and Light models follow the original USRA designs closely.   Railroad specific variations are not modeled on these locomotives.  Many Pacifics used the same 10,000 gallon tender as the USRA Mikados, and our models uses this 10,000 gallon tender.  In addition to some of the prototypical USRA Pacifics, we are also decorating our USRA prototype in attractive paint schemes that similar Pacifics wore for other railroads, as well as a few striking fantasy paint schemes.  Our models are available in our Paragon4 Sound/DC/DCC Series, or in our Stealth Series as No-Sound / DCC-Ready models.        Industry-Leading Features:  Paragon4 Sound & Operation System featuring ROLLING THUNDERTM  Authentic Sounds and Prototypical Operation in both DC and DCC environments Integral DCC Decoder with Back EMF for Industry Best Slow Speed Operation in DC and DCC Precision Drive Mechanism engineered for continuous heavy load towing and smooth slow speed operation Prototypical Light Operation with Golden White LED Headlight Die Cast Boiler Body with Die Cast chassis for Maximum Tractive Effort Traction Tires for Additional Tractive Effort (2) Operating MicroTrains-compatible Couplers Separately Applied Handrails, Ladders, Whistle, and Brass Bell Will Operate on Code 55, 70, and 80 Rail Recommended Minimum Radius: 9.75 inches   Broadway Limited Imports is proud to introduce Paragon4: The new benchmark for premium HO sound-equipped locomotives.
