Description
The Walthers Cornerstone Mission-Style Freight House is based on a standard Santa Fe design used across the railroad. From passenger train names to stations, the Santa Fe led the pack in selling the American southwest as a vacation destination. To carry the flavor of the old west, many stations and their attached or adjacent freight station (including brick ones) were reworked with pinkish-tan stucco walls, tile roofs and mission-style trim to resemble traditional adobe buildings. While the depot was a Santa Fe design, similarly styled depots and freight houses were used on several railroads. This easy-to-build kit includes the realistic stucco structure, window glazing, wood trim, a brick platform and realistic printed signs. Several of these structures still stand in 2017 even in locations where the depot is long gone and most have been re-purposed for other uses including MOW storage buildings, so the Mission-Style Freight House will look great on any layout set between the 1930s and the present. Santa Fe's stucco-exterior freight house used system wide Use alone or combine with Mission-Style Depot (933-2920, sold separately) Great for smaller cities and towns Separate windows and doors Brick platform Realistic printed signs Molded in four colors and clear The finished model measures: 9-1/2 x 6-1/2 x 2-1/2" 24.1 x 16.5 x 6.3cm
