The British Victorian red brick townhouse emerged during Queen Victoria's reign (1837–1901), reflecting the era's industrial and architectural advances. With the advent of mass brick production and rail transport, red bricks became affordable and widely available. Victorian architecture embraced Gothic Revival, Italianate, and Queen Anne styles, characterised by ornate detailing, bay windows, gables, and decorative brickwork. Red brick houses symbolised urban prosperity, particularly in growing industrial cities. Their durability and aesthetic appeal made them iconic in suburbs and working-class areas alike. Today, these houses endure as a hallmark of Victorian design, blending function with the artistic aspirations of the era.

One of the fundamental aspects of safety on the railway was that wagons should never be overloaded. To do so would risk trains not having sufficient braking capacity to slow and stop safely. To manage loading at many industrial locations, each wagon would pass over a Weighbridge - to check their weight. Each wagon would display its tare weight, which could be deducted from the total weight, to ascertain the net weight of the load - simple mathematics! The new Ratio kit is a great representation of a typical Weighbridge, not dissimilar to the one, once located at Shildon Wagon Works in the North East. Combining a mixture of materials, the plastic parts make up the hut and laser-cut wood parts form the actual weighing scales, which fit in and around a length of ST-201 PECO Setrack track, included in the kit. 

Another useful addition to the extensive range of Ratio OO/HO scale railway structure kits.
