Proto-Freelance 20′ Fire Car Kit
|
Important Note: The initial release limited run is now sold out. Please check back from time to time for the next run! Our latest addition to our growing line of high quality, prototypically correct, polyurethane kits is this 20′ fire car kit. Built on our new 20′ flat car frame, this free-lanced, fire fighting car is typical of many such cars used on short line narrow guage railroads in the first half of the twentieth century. While there is no prototype for this particular car, it was designed and built following standard building practices of the day. Typically, a railroad would take an older, dis-used water tank and add a steam or air driven pump (this model uses air) and one or two hoses. The pump could be used to make water pressure for the fire hoses or could be run backwards to fill the tank from a pond or stream. The tool box on the platform was used to store tools, extra hose, and nozzels. While this kit is more challenging than most of our kits, we have designed the parts for easy assembly. This excellent addition to anyone’s layout is now available in On3 (FMW-2212) or On30! This high quality, polyurethane kit features the following:

Proto-Freelance 20′ Gondola/Ore Car Kit
|
Yet another new addition to our growing line of high quality, prototypically correct car kits, and originally designed for use on our own On3 mining layout: this free-lanced gondola is typical of many such cars used on short line narrow gauge railroads in the first half of the twentieth century. While there is no prototype for this particular car, it was designed and built following standard construction practices of the day. Typically, these low sided gondolas, built on flat cars, would have been used to haul ore, rock, sand, or ballast. These cars could be easily loaded using any ore chute type loader, but would have to be hand shoveled out. These cars had a low cubic capacity due to the heavy weight of the material they carried, the light construction of the cars, and the relatively low capacity of the trucks. Note: This kit replaces the now discontinued 18′ High Side Gondola kit FMW-2304. We believe that this highly detailed, easy to assemble kit will make as excellent an addition to any layout as it is on ours! This high quality, polyurethane kit features the following:

Proto-Freelance, 20′ Gondola/Ore Car Kit:
This kit includes all castings required to complete one car (paint and decals not included).| Scale | Stock No. | Price |

Proto-Freelance Wooden Bunk, 20′ Logging Flat Car Kit
|
Designed to accommodate our 20′ frame, this free-lanced, wooden bunk, flat car is typical of many such cars used on short line narrow gauge railroads in the first half of the twentieth century. While there is no prototype for this particular car, it was designed and built following standard building practices of the day. This car is also made to look like it had been made from a modified, 20′ flat car. During that modification, heavy timbers were added to the deck to be used as log bunks and the stake pockets were removed, as they would no longer be needed. We believe that this highly detailed, easy to assemble kit will make as excellent an addition to any layout as it is on ours!
