Description

With the need for a strong workforce in isolated areas, coal and timber companies found that the establishment of company towns provided a means for attracting and controlling the labor supply. Workers rented the houses from the company, bought at the company store, and as a result, workers owed their souls to the company store as related in the 1950s song, "16 Tons." The company houses ranged in size from small to large, single story to two-story, and a variety of duplex designs. This company house was inspired by one from Pickshin, WV. The kit includes the piling to build it for a level surface or for a sloped location. Interior partitions are included as are positionable doors and windows. This kit consists of laser-cut basswood and plywood, and tar-paper roofing. A urethane chimney and some white metal and brass details are included. The tabbed construction provides for easy assembly. The footprint is about 31' x 35'. BTS HO Scale Cabin Creek Company House Road Name: Road Number: Photo may not show actual road number . Please see description for actual road number

    Received this kit a few days ago. Kit has numerous options to assemble or customize. Components look well designed. I have a plan on my layout for a building such as this. Looking forward to assembly and placement.
