O/On30 1:48 Scale Outhouses

O/On30 1:48 Scale Outhouses (Privies) 
set of 2
designed by Thomas Yorke

This set of 2 outhouses (privies) are packed with character and would look great in many settings! One privy is a single stall and the other is a double stall. So many opportunities for super detailing these! 

Tom designed these privy kits as a fantastic introduction to the world of resin kits for the beginner as well as for the seasoned modeler. These go together quickly and easily and have detailed instructions in a painting method that Tom uses to achieve a "stained", old and weathered look on resin pieces. If you've ever felt intimidated by how Tom gets the fantastic results he has perfected over 50 years in his career, consider giving these kits try. These are a great way to get your feet wet! Of course these are also a great opportunity for those who have lots of experience under their belt as they build into highly detailed foreground models.


O/On30 1:48 Scale 1919 Hearse Conversion Kit

O/On30 1:48 Scale 1919 Hearse Conversion Kit
designed by Thomas Yorke
 

"This kit will build into a model of a 1919 Hearse body to replace the original one on the Russo Balt auto model (not included). While this is not a model of a specific coachbuilder's art, it does represent a typical, fine wooden body that was added to large autos of practically any manufacture." -Thomas Yorke

Use this kit to convert a diecast model of your choosing into a hearse.


O/On30 1:48 Scale Ouisi's Bar

O/On30 1:48 Scale Ouisi's Bar
designed by Thomas Yorke

"A little history before we begin. "Ouisi" was the nickname of my wife's Aunt Louise. She worked for the Liquor Control Board in Pittsburgh, PA many years ago. What better way to commemorate her than to name a bar for her? I often give tribute to family and friends in naming my kits. Hence, Ouisi's Bar. This kit was first introduced way back in 1995 in a limited run of 100 Hydrocal structures and has been updated and is now being offered in resin by Frenchman River Model Works." ~Thomas Yorke

This small brick bar with a corner entry is loaded with character! It is designed to be built on a corner lot with gently sloping terrain. The included sidewalk sections are built to accommodate this and make for an interesting composition. 

Olde Reliable Moving & Storage Warehouse

designed and produced by James and Anna Cleveland
Olde Reliable Moving and Storage Warehouse
designed and produced by James and Anna Cleveland

Back in the 1880’s with the arrival of the railroad and a population explosion there arose a need to manage goods and so August Smathers, recently arrived in Stinkwater Crik, founded the A. Smathers Moving and Storage Company which gained instant popularity and success.  After the original wooden structure burned down he rebuilt: this time in brick. Hoping to convince residents to entrust their valuables with his establishment once more, he renamed the company and so the Olde Reliable Moving and Storage Company was born. Boasting its facilities as fireproof regained him a prominent place in Stinkwater Crik. Any others simply can’t compete.

This 2 story warehouse is constructed of brick with a concrete foundation and large arched windows giving it interest. This warehouse is modular which opens up possibilities to add a 3rd (or more!) story that will create quite the presence. There are 3 truck bays with loading docks on one side and a large loading dock on the other side intended to be located along side your track for ease of loading and unloading into boxcars. The windows boast a central window that can be tilted to be posed as open.  Complete with a fire escape, decals and signage.

 This structure would be easily adapted for use as a factory or warehouse for other industries.
