HO Scale Kits Coming in 2025

The successful Southern/NS PS 5277 12-post boxcar urethane kit from 2021 (below-left and right photos) will be upgraded and rerun later this year as a 3D resin-printed kit.  "Upgrades" will include combined once-separate urethane and/or printed details into larger subassemblies that shorten assembly time.

The "waffled" version (2nd row-right photo) ... a new kit ... will debut at the same time.

Our FormLabs' "Form 4" will handle the printing.  This state-of-the-art printer uses newly formulated resin that is more durable and less likely to warp which were drawbacks to the previous model.
The NS G83 "Dolly Parton", like the boxcars, has never been offered in scale form.  Only 257 were produced for NS by Trinity Industries in 1991.  The double door 5277 will follow the G83.

Send me an email at the link below to show your interest in all of these kits.  No deposit required, just your "vote".
In the works for 2026 ...
Potential upgrades/reruns in 3D resin.  Let me know which ones you'd like to see and I'll add your vote to my spreadsheet.
