Trackside Details (S and O)
PHONE BOX KITS
The phone box, also named "call box", was a key ingredient in the communication system between crews and dispatchers/operators. A box would be "planted" on a post or bolted to a phone pole in strategic locations, such as diamonds, branchline junctions, interchanges, and congested areas. Remote areas with few depots also used these. They were EVERYWHERE!
The box, roof, and braces are a single, resin-printed piece. A 1/2" length of blackend chain is included for the lock. The post is not included but can easily be modeled with a short length of Code 70 rail or glued to a telephone pole.
S-Scale >> 64-TD-40 ... $10.00
O-Scale >> 48-TD-40 ... $14.00
(Discounted pricing available when ordering multiple kits ... send email with request.)
