Rio Grande Southern 259Our latest release will be replacement sides for the AMS Jackson Sharp coaches, to produce the Rio Grande Southern Combination car 259. The kit will include laser cut replacement sides, metal steps and grab handles.
The model is shown here in red (information I have is conflicting as to whether it ever wore red or green paint.)
Water side decals will soon be available, as an optional extra, produced by Stan Cedarleaf.
These kits will be available initially in limited quanties from Jonathan at Electric Model Works by early to mid July.
Availability of other kits.
Due to a problem with shipping a number of parcels sent to Electric Model Works were lost. These missing kits should be back in stock from mid July and include:
010145 Water service car, 06402 Boom car add on kit, replacement sides for the AMS J&S cars to produce coaches 300 and 292.
The Gunnison plow and Alamosa trash Gondola are now close to production,
We have purchased our own white metal casting machine and it is my intention to produce castings for all the parts that are not available from Ozark.
80% of the masters for these are now complete, and the remainder should be ready in the next few weeks.
Pagosa Combine 215
Shown below is a preproduction model of the Pagosa springs Combine. The kit will include laser cut sides, cupola and roof walk. Together with cast ladders, smoke stack etc. The only part to be completed is the roof lantern, and this again should be ready in a few weeks. The Cupola is designed to be built over the existing AMS roof without any cutting. But should you wish to cut the roof to include interior detail it is easy to do so.
