Founded in 2019, Scale Railroad Models provides Prototypical and Historical Building Kits for HO and N Scale Model Railroaders. The founder has been a Model Railroader for his entire life, starting with a Tyco HO layout on an 8'x4' piece of plywood at the age of 6 with his older brother. After many visits to Model Train shows and home tours to look at how others had placed buildings and scenery, it became apparent that there was a distinct lack of diversity in the buildings that were being used on everybody's layouts.
Being a graphics software engineer and doing 3D graphics for about 30 years, it became obvious that in order to have a layout with buildings different than everybody else's, new designs would have to be constructed. With the purchase of a 3D printer and 3D CAD modeling software, the path became clear for a way to have buildings that were different than everybody else. Once the buildings started to "multiply" with buildings from other states, the question was asked: What if someone else wanted some of these different buildings for their layout? Scale Railroad Models' printers run around the clock making the building kits that are on their website.
One of Scale Railroad Models' goals is to have one building from each of the 50 United States. We even give you the physical street address of the building if it is a current prototypical building. If we don't have it, we'll give you the latitude/longitude coordinates for the model, as in our drawbridge kit. Note: Historical kits don't exist anymore and as such we cannot supply the street address.
