P/N S59 The CAR BARN (A.K.A. The POLE BARN)

This is a very generic looking steel building. It fits in really well with the rest of our steel buildings. It is large enough to house engines or rolling stock. Its length can be extended as needed by adding extra pieces to the walls and roof. It has been used in multiples side by side. The side building can be used on either or both sides and has been used by itself. This is a very versatile structure. Easy to build and comes with an interior. A real good first timer.

P/N S82 GREEZY GUS'S HAMBURGERS

Greezy’s (Not its real name.), is a small store brought to us by our friend Bill Laird. It is quite small, only about 13’ square, but very accurate reproduction with a lot of old fashioned charm. It will look great on just about any street corner you put it on. We have changed a few of the roof details to make it more interesting and easier to build. Anyone with fair skills can probably put this kit together in a week of evenings. (Although the bench is a challenge.)It comes with an optional interior.

P/N S35 HARVEY'S HOBBIES

This is a selectively compressed version of an actual shop, near our homes in Harvey, Illinois. It is still there although it has not been open for many years. The model scales out to 17’-3 wide x 17’-0 deep x 23’-0 to the roof peak. The actual building is over 50’ deep. This is a medium difficulty kit because of the false front and roof trim, but still easy enough for just about anyone. There is a simplified interior included. There is also a hanging LIONEL sign that mounts to a pole between the front windows that is included, but not shown. Mounting is by the modeler.

                              O Scale $7.95     HO Scale $5.95

P/N S70 The MARINE SUPPLY WAREHOUSE

The is a typical small Marine Supply Warehouse that can be found at any waterfront setting. Its small footprint makes it flexible and easy to fit into most scanes, only 21’-0 wide x 26’-0 deep, 23’-0 to the roof peak and another 4’-6 to the top of the cupola. A fairly sturdy looking structure with a definite North-eastern flavor. A relatively simple kit. Great for the first time builder, although the seasoned veteran will find it useful.

                              O Scale $6.95      HO Scale $4.95

P/N S39 The FLAG STOP

The Flag Stop is a generic (no particular prototype) passenger structure found just about anywhere in the US. It is small by most standards, only 16’-3 x 10’-9 at the base. The style and colors match our kit P/N S16 The Small Town Depot, so they go well together.

                              O Scale $6.95      HO Scale $4.95

P/N S31 AKRON MACHINE TOOL

AKRON Machine Tool Co. Is a big, big kit. It scales out to 56’-0 wide x a minimum of 24’-3 deep x 45’-0 tall. The minimum depth, as shown in the angled views is one set of windows between pilasters. The kit comes with three such sections for an approximate depth of 66’-6, but can be added to in approximately 21’-3 sections. It comes with two different style roofs. A peaked roof with side windows, as shown and an arched roof that can be seen on the GALLERY PAGE. The interior shown is NOT included in the kit. It has a lot of classic brick building charm and can be kit bashed into some interesting variations.
Please be advised that there are 8 files that need to be downloaded for the O scale version. Like I said, this is a BIG kit.

                             O Scale $15.95    HO Scale $11.95

P/N S77 CENTRAL CAMERA

Central Camera is a typical 3 story brick building located in Chicago and also found all over the country. It is a fairly large building, 19’ wide x 28’ deep x 40’ tall, to the top of the front wall. This kit has a partial 1st floor interior. It is similar in size and style to Hoosier Mama’s which makes it a great sidwalk companion. Build & Photos by Master Modeler: Aristotelese Held

P/N S62 The BRICK MERCANTILE

This Brick Version of our Mercantile Building is the same footprint as the clapboard version, kit S13. It has the same roof line and outside, covered stairs. It differs in that it does no have the Timber Loading Dock because of the ground level, rear loading doors. Another great triangular shaped building for those hard to fill spots on the layout. A great view block between switch points. Truly useful shape.

                               O Scale $8.95     HO Scale $5.95

P/N S61 SMITTY'S MUSIC SHOP

Smitty’s is a quaint 2 story clapboard, corner store. Buildings just like it can be found just about everywhere in America. Included is an optional 8 sided Turret that can be built with a flat roof or a 7 sided “Witches Hat”. Yes, I said an 8 sided Turret & a 7 sided roof. (There is a prototype for this building, but this is not an exact replica.) Large display windows, awnings, a partial 1st floor interior and 2nd story window “shadowboxes” complete the kit.

P/N S27 The ENGINE HOUSE at GORRE

We have been asked many times to please make the GORRE enginehouse available as a download. Well, here she is. This is not an EXACT replica although it is authorized by the NMRA who owns the rights to all things from the late John Allen’s estate. We have made minor embellishments to the kit, such as adding doors where John had none. There are also a variety of stacks that can be built.
This is a new departure for us in that these are very large files. Please be prepared to have a good steady internet connection before you attempt to download.
The building is 35’ wide x 62’ deep w/ 15’-7-1/2 track centers.

                             O Scale $24.95    HO Scale $19.95

P/N S34 SKIPPY'S HOT DOGS

Skippy’s is an actual building, located in Chicago. It is sandwiched between two MUCH taller buildings and really shows the diversity of the architecture in the ares. Can’t really say too much about it. After all it is just a hot dog stand. The building is only 10’-0 wide x 32’-0 deep.

 O Scale $6.95      S Scale $5.95      HO Scale $4.95

P/N S60 NARROW GAUGE CRITTER SHED

This little shed is a freelance design. From the pix you can see that it will look good on any short line or industrial layout. Comes with interior sheathing and either wooden post & beam support structure or steel trusses (not shown and very minimal in design). It is intended to house a fairly small narrow gauge engine, although you could probably get a very small standard gauge critter inside. The building is 21’-6 deep x 19’-9 wide with a 12’-3 wide x 20’-0 tall door.

O Scale $5.95       S Scale $5.95     HO Scale $4.95

P/N S33 The COAL DEALER

A small coal operation like this could be found in every corner of the country and in just about every town. Everyone needed to buy coal to keep their homes and places of business warm in winter. With different signage, this building can be re-purposed into many other types of business. Comes with Coal Bins, a Truck Scale, a Coal Loader and interior details. It is one of the buildings found on the 1st. Street DVD. The building measures 17’-9 wide x 22’-3 deep x 26’-4 tall.

O Scale $10.95      S Scale $9.95      HO Scale $8.95

P/N S20 McELDERS BICYCLE SHOP

McElders is a down home, backwoods type of building that can fit in just about anywhere. It comes with a raised wooden timber loading platform that can service R.R. cars or trucks.(it can be built without it) It’s not a really big structure. The building is 16’-6 wide x 21’-6 deep & the dock adds another 5’-9 to the depth & 18’-9 to the left side. It also comes with two alternate facades. a pale yellow and white with no graphics. The back side not shown is liberally patched in scrap sheet metal.

P/N S30 The SMALL STEEL MILL BLDG 02

We call this our “SMALL” steel mill building and although it is similar in style to its big brother, it is more weathered and has different proportions. It could be used for just about any industry or the kind of place you might stash that flying saucer and all those pods. The main building is 21’-9 wide x 39’-0 deep x 24’-6 tall and the wing buildings, which can be used separately add 12’-0 to each side. The wings have been used together to make a building of their own. As you can see in the pictures, this building can be easily stretched. In this case 3 times.

                               O Scale $7.95     HO Scale $5.95

P/N S29 The BIG STEEL MILL BLDG 01

We call this our “BIG” steel mill building and it is a really big model. But by steel mill standards, it’s really rather puny, scaling out at only 39’-0 wide x 61-6 deep x 56’-0 tall for the main building. There are also a pair of “wing” buildings along either side that are 9’-9 wide each which increases the overall width to 53’-6. These wing buildings can be used separately. This is a very plain building and comes with a bunch of doors and windows that can be added by the builder to change its appearance. This is really typical of what you might see around any type of large industrial complex. Consider it a steel mill kitbashing resource.

P/N S23 HOOSIER MAMA's PIES

Hoosier Mama’s Pies is typical of 3 story brick buildings found all over the country. This is a model of an actual building in Chicago. It is a fairly large building, 19’ wide x 28’ deep x 40’ tall, to the top of the front wall. This kit has a partial 1st floor interior. Hoosier Mama’s is also found on our 1st. Street DVD along with 7 other buildings.

P/N S24 RUDY'S PRINTING

Rudy’s Printing is a typical 2 story brick building found all over the country. It has some really nice architectural details like the cast iron 1st. floor facade. There is also a nice sized water tank, on the roof, that we’re sure will find many places, around the layout, where it can be used. It is a narrow building, 15’ wide (including the stairs to the 2nd. floor, x 18’ deep x 30’ tall, to the top of the front wall. The duct work shown is not part of the kit. Rudy’s is also found on our 1st. Street DVD along with 7 other buildings.

P/N S40 CREAM CITY TOOL WORKS

This is our rendition of the actual Cream City complex located in the Milwaukee area. The original photos of these fantastic buildings were taken by our good friend John Kosma. He built the prototype model and we converted it to the kit version you see here. I think it speaks for itself. This kit is only available in HO Scale because of it’s large size. It can be downloaded here, instantly.

                                           HO Scale $12.95

P/N S26 ELECTRICAL RELAY BOX

This is your typical Relay Box found just about anywhere that you find a signal. Though the picture says 3 pack, you can obviously print as many as you wish.

                                            All Scales $2.95

P/N S19 THE WAREHOUSE

Recently redesigned and improved, the warehouse is a great companion to the plant #2 kit. The warehouse also lends its self to being built as a low relief background building.
Because of the size of this building, we were able to enlarge the smaller scales by adding floors.

O Scale $6.95, S Scale $5.95, HO Scale $4.95, N Scale $3.95

P/N S18 JEFFERSON ICE Co.

Ice distributors like the Jefferson Ice Co. were a common, even iconic sight found in most moderate sized towns.
From the 30’s through the early 60’s, they supplied ice in blocks and cubes to industries and homes until ice became a do-it-yourself activity. The Jefferson Ice Company was torn down in late 2008. We were fortunate to find it, before that, in Des Plaines, IL. Available here as an instant download and also on the “more brick”disk

This kit is an exact duplicate, photographically researched and computer modeled.
It is a challenging and beautiful model when carefully built.

O Scale $11.95, S Scale $9.95, HO Scale $7.95, N Scale $5.95

P/N S15 PLANT #2

Plant #2 is one of our most popular kits.
A flat roofed brick plant buuilding that combines well with many other structures.

P/N S14 SMALL COMPANY HOUSE

Small frame homes like these are a common site in urban industrial districts.
This kit features our multi-level distress system and can be built in many different configurations. This house design is the hart of our “Neighborhoods” DVD where it is also found with a wide selection of garages, sheds and fences.

O Scale $9.95, S Scale $7.95, HO Scale $5.95, N Scale $3.95

P/N S13 THE MERCANTILE

The mercantile can add a lot of character in a small space. Featuring advertising graphics and moderate weathering, this is a great kit for modelers just getting started with card models. The timber loading dock is a separate, stand alone kit that is included.It is also a part of our “Wood Industries” DVD.

O Scale $8.95, S Scale $6.95, HO Scale $4.95, N Scale $3.95

P/N S12 BRICK GARAGE

A brick, 2 bay structure, that was found while touring the alleys of Chicagos’ Rogers Park neighborhood. What caught our eye, was the slightly larger size and the loft above the garage doors. Buildings like this were common to urban neighborhoods, which often had (and still have) small industries running “out back”. This would make a great auto shop, welding shop, out building or even a garage. This kit comes with 2 different roofs, several types of doors, a small dormer and a small shed. This is a fun and easy kit.

O Scale $6.95, S Scale $5.95, HO Scale $4.95, N Scale $3.95

P/N S11 STEEL UTILITY SHED

This steel walled shed can be found in every rail yard.

It’s one of the most flexible kits we make.
Though it’s not intended to have windows, we include some in the kit for you to place as you wish.
You decide where or if you want to use them.

O Scale $5.95, S Scale $4.95, HO Scale $3.95, N Scale $2.95

P/N S10 QUONSET HUT

Found everywhere and probably our best selling kit. We think our Quonset hut is the best kit of its kind anywhere. Available in clean white or heavily rusted. It features an optional side loading bay, several dormers and a roll-up steel door.
If you have an industry on your layout, you need a qounset hut. Easy to build our Quonset Hut is a great starter kit for those just getting into building with card stock. All of the variations of this building are on the “Steel Industrial” DVD.

P/N S09 STEEL SHED with WINDOWS

This is identical to the ‘Utility Shed’ except it is surrounded with industrial style windows and is sheathed in standing seam steel sheets.
I originally came across this structure wile driving up Sheridan Rd somewhere between Chicago and Milwaukee. there were about 20 of them side by side and in rows over a very large area. It looked very Area 51ish. This building is also available as part of the “Steel Industrial” DVD

O Scale $5.95, S Scale $4.95, HO Scale $3.95, N Scale $2.95

P/N S08 TURBINE HOUSE

This wood frame factory building is based on a photograph of the J.L. Simon Furniture factory and is typical of many backwoods industries found all over rural America.
It is made from a very distressed, red painted clapboard and a tar paper roof. The basic elements can be easily rearranged or extended. We were drawn to the unusually low side wings and its ‘home made’ look. It is also on the “Wood industrial bldg.” DVD

O Scale $6.95, S Scale $5.95, HO Scale $4.95, N Scale $3.95

P/N S06 SMALL FORGE BUILDING

This small industrial building is a compilation of several small factories. It could be a small forge, glass blowing plant or heavy machine repair shop. It features a large rooftop window bay, a sheet metal roof, vents and blowers.
There is a tall freight door on one side.
The roof bay can be shortened or left off all-together, so combining multiples of this kit to create a big industry is a natural.
This model is a great partner to our steel sided building and Quonset hut. It is also available on the “Brick and mortar” DVD

O Scale $8.95, S Scale $6.95, HO Scale $4.95, N Scale $3.95

P/N S53 KIRK'S BOOKS

P/N S54 BEATTIE'S GROCERY

Beattie’s Grocery has been a Southern California establishment for decades. Now closed, the building is still in fairly good shape. We were lucky enough to be provided with many great photos to work with. The front porch is especially, interesting, with its ornate ceiling.

The building is fairly large, being 49’-9 Deep x 30’-3 Wide and 23’-0 Tall.

P/N S52 ENCLOSED HEX WOODEN WATER TANK

Enclosed water tanks could be found along the right-of-way of many railroads in the colder climates, where the water had to be protected from freezing. Tanks, similar to this one, were found on the CP, CN and the O&W. The capacity shown here is about 60,000 gallons, but because of the ease of kit-bshing a cardstock model, can be built larger or smaller to suit your needs. The windows, doors and spout can be located in just about any position. Rigging for the spout is not included. This is a fairly easy structure to build and scales out at 46’-6 tall x 26’-6 across the flat sides and 30’-6 across the corners.

P/N S51 WOODEN SCALE HOUSE

This model depicts a Fairbanks Morse, wooden scale house that you could have found almost anywhere in the country from the 30’s on. It’s a bit run down, but that’s what gives it character. A small model that will fit almost anywhere. Comes with steel plate inserts to place on the rails to cover the scale mechanism. Also comes with a blank sign that you can letter and an interior.

O Scale $5.95, S Scale $4.95, HO Scale $3.95, N Scale $3.95

P/N S50 ROYAL IMPORTS

This is what we would describe as a beginner level kit. Something to learn the basics of Card Modeling on without investing a lot of time or money. It is a “Low Relief Flat”, meant to be positioned against a backdrop. With a bit of creativity and some additional material, it could be made into a complete building. If you purchase the N Scale version, you also receive a surprise additional kit, The Double Peak Wooden Warehouse flat.

P/N S48 THE WATER TANK at GORRE

This is our version of John Allen’s famous Gorre Water Tank. Previously, it has only been available on DVD, but it’s such a great structure, we had to make it available here. It’s not an exact copy, but you get the flavor of this historic structure. This is a fairly easy structure to build and just screams to be kit bashed. I’ve used the base building many times. It’s a great little brick building, all by itself. Details & Base shown are not part of the kit. O scale model shown, built by Jim Gore.

P/N S76 The PHOTO STUDIO

Following in our style of fairly compact wooden structures we bring you the Photo Studio. This is a very versatile kit with a lot of options. You have a choice of graphics on the front or not, a blank rear wall or one with a double inset window, a mostly glass dormer with skylight that can be placed on either or both sides, or not at all. We are also introducing a new feature called the “veneer” door. This type of door can literally be placed anywhere on the exterior of the building. Approximate size is 17’-3” wide x 14’-0” deep x 25’-0 tall.

NOTE: This kit comes in O scale with instructions to print in ANY smaller scale.

P/N S75 CAROLINA CASTING

Carolina Casting is a fairly small Foundry Complex that is made up of a central main building surrounded by a cluster of smaller ones. The overall size is about 57 feet wide x 47 feet deep. You could probably locate this complex anywhere from an urban manufactruing district to a Western desert. This complex fits well with the Silver City Mine Shed. This kit is based on a scratch built model by: Dave Rarig (N scale shown), who loosely followed the format of the Carolina Foundry drawings published by Model Railroader Magazine in 1972.

NOTE: This kit comes in O scale with instructions to print in ANY smaller scale.

P/N S74 COAL & GRAIN ELEVATORS

The inspiration for these models came from one we saw on an HO layout at the 2013 Amherst Railway Society Hobby Show. Just a simple structure that can be built as an elevator for Coal or Grain. Parts are included for both. Even though this is a simple structure, I rate it as being an advanced level kit that will probably take a month of evenings to complete. The basic size of the building assembly is 53’ wide x 22’ deep x 48’-6 tall. That is not counting the dump pit (included) or any track needed. (Vehicles & track shown are NOT included.) The kitbashing possibilities with this kit are enormous. Extensive instructions & photos ARE included.

NOTE: This kit comes in O scale with instructions to print in ANY smaller scale.

P/N S73 The CORN CRIB

The Corn Crib is very typical of what you can find on just about any rural homestead throughout the Midwest. This is a most enjoyable kit and goes together in less than a week of evenings. It is one of the most basic we have done in a long time. It is only 20’ long x 10’ wide x 21’ tall, so it can fit just about anywhere on your layout.

NOTE: This kit comes in O scale with instructions to print in ANY smaller scale.

$5.95

P/N S72 The WHEELWRIGHT's SHOP

The Wheelwright’s Shop is just what it sounds like. It will fit into a fairly large range of time periods. It is a fairly well maintained Clapboard & Stone building that might be used for other things. This kit, while being very well detailed, is probably one of the best, so far, for beginners. You will use all of the basic skills needed to to build a high quality paper kit. There are windows & doors to layer & inset, tubes to roll & some fancy cutting. This is a most enjoyable kit and goes together in less than a week of evenings.

NOTE: This kit comes in O scale with instructions to print in ANY smaller scale.

P/N S71 HALF THROUGH GIRDER BRIDGE with ABUTMENTS

This is a very simple yet extremely versatile kit. It’s basic length is 80’-0, but it can be easily stretched or shortened to almost any length. The width is up to the modeler as the track support material must be supplied by the builder. Thin plywood, plexiglass or Masonite all work well.

P/N S84 NATIONAL STOVE

National Stove is just a small clapboard building that could be any one of a thousand different business’s. Its small footprint and triangular shape, help it to fit into many awkward empty spaces that just cry out for a building. Two different roof-top signs are included or you can make one of your own. You also get all kinds of wall signs, duct work and an A/C unit that can be used or not, as you wish. This is an easy kit to build and should go together in a couple of evenings.

P/N S83 The Rural Church

This is our rendition of the simple Country Church. Call it a Rural Church or Rustic Church. It is similar to hundreds, probably thousands of churches found all across our country.

This complex of three buildings is only 1-1/2” deep, but it has some really deep character. This is a fairly simple kit to build. Great for a first timer. The complex is made up of three buildings and while they are not intended to be used separately, with a bit of ingenuity, they could be. Building A, (Right end), is 21’-6 wide x 20’-6 Tall x 2’-0 deep, Building B (Middle) is 22’-6 wide x 26’-9 tall x 3’-9 deep and Building A, (Left end), is 16’-0 wide x 5’-0 deep x 37’-3 tall.

P/N S05 GATEMANS' TOWER

The Gatemans Tower is based on a prototype on the Milwaukee road in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
This 1920’s vintage gate house was in operation well into the 70’s. I know of other octagonal gate houses in other locations and, in fact, saw one here in a Chicago rail yard.
In O scale this kit has a footprint of barely 2”, however the staircase extends another 3” further out.
The building experience was a real pleasure.
Its a challenging kit that demands careful attention but as you can see, makes a striking building.

The Bunkhouse, as we like to call it, is very typical of a small residence that you would find all over Australia. Usually they would be built on brick or wood pilings.

This is a kit that dates back to 2013, when we released it as a FREEBIE. Well, I think it’s time to bring it back as a regular kit. It’s fairly small, only 10’-6 wide X 12’-3 deep. It is a really simple 1-2 evening build that just about anyone can handle. Great for first timers. Of course you don’t have to use it as a sand house.

P/N S47 HABBAKER'S GARAGE

This was a difficult building display properly. Mainly because of it’s complex shape. It is a large, two story brick garage with some very interesting lines. You can just about see that there is a wooden staircase, to the second floor, against the left wall. This building is also available as part of our “First street” DVD.

P/N S46 WESTERN STOREFRONT 01

As the title implies “01” probably means that there will be more of this style of structure coming in the future. We have had allot of requests for some Western motif structures. No particular prototype for this one, but I think you will agree that this is a good start to what will be a line of generic Western prototypes. This structure comes with a complete interior and at least three different signs. There are also enough “extra” parts for you to model at least three fairly distinctive looking buildings with one kit. (The N Scale version will be available shortly.)

American Steel is typical of mill buildings found all over the U.S. It is a low-relief kit, meant to fit against a backdrop. That doesn’t mean that it has less detail. Another great kit for experienced or beginning modelers. This is a relatively big model as illustrated by comparing it to the HO vehicles in the picture. (Not included) This kit is easily modified and extended. It combines with other Clever models industrial kits to create large complexes.

P/N S99 MODERN STEEL BUILDING (blue)

Many of our friends have asked for some modern diesel era buildings. This is the first of what will eventually be a new series of modern buildings. We thought we would start with about as basic a building as you will find anywhere. This is a simple kit, a basic box with an optional roll-up door lean-to. The walls are all blank, but there are four sheets with nothing but doors and windows that you can locate anywhere. You could probably put ten of these on your layout and make then all look different. Basic footprint is 27’ wide x 37’ deep x 17’ tall.

NOTE: This kit comes in O scale with instructions to print in ANY smaller scale.

P/N S85 CLYDE PUFFER CARGO BOAT

The Clyde Puffer is a flat bottomed, coal fired, steam powered, cargo boat. They were used in the Firth & Clyde canal system and surrounding waters of Scotland. Their steam engine made a characteristic puffing sound, hence, the the name. They carried everything from coal to farm produce and could be “beached” at low tide for unloading. They were typically under 66’ in length so they could fit in the canal locks. Our version has been selectively compressed to about 35’, but could be easily lengthened by printing a second hull & deck sheet and splicing them together.

NOTE: This kit comes in O scale with instructions to print in ANY smaller scale.

$7.95

P/N S03 INSULBRICK STORAGE BUILDING/GARAGE
