Plastic kit depicting a structure typical of the kind found in the goods yard of many stations around the country.

A model of a fixed height derrick type jib crane, usually hand worked. Supplied with pre-coloured parts although painting and/or weathering can add realism; glue is required to complete this model. Footprint 81mm x 21mm.

Many small stations only had a loading platform for goods traffic, so required a store house for keeping goods safe and dry. The raised floor of this store both kept goods free from frost and was also a convenient height for loading. Supplied with pre-coloured parts although painting and/or weathering can add realism; glue is required to complete this model. Footprint: 92mm x 60mm

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.

These wagon and van kits are very quick and easy to assemble. Consisting of a one-piece pre coloured body moulding, chassis, chassis weight, disc wheels and couplings, they are essentially unpainted, unassembled versions of our famous ready to run range.

Block trains carrying specialised loads are a feature of the modern railway. All Peco wagons feature free running wheels in pin point axles. The ELC coupling, whilst compatible with the standard N gauge couplings, keeps a realistic distance between vehicles and enables the PL-25 electro magnetic decoupler to be used for remote uncoupling.

These sheets are invaluable for scratchbuilding, saving many hours of repetitive work creating the various surface patterns and textures. They are the same as those used in the Craftsman kits to make extension work easier. Each pack contains 4 sheets 130mm x 75mm of injection moulded styrene approximately 2mm thick, making them rigid enough to be self supporting.

Each pack contains 4 loads; as supplied they each fit a standard wagon. The mouldings are designed to be split in half so that one and a half mouldings can be used to fit a 15ft open wagon.

Footprints: Greenhouse 56mm x 41mm, Cold Frames 26mm x 25mm each (glazing included). Supplied with pre-coloured parts although painting and/or weathering can add realism; glue is required to complete this model.

2 huts and a privy as seen on allotments everywhere. Supplied with pre-coloured parts although painting and/or weathering can add realism; glue is required to complete this model. Combined footprint: 94mm x 38mm

Kit of a typical small box, often found on a branch line or controlling a main line yard.
