Alkem Scale Models - Brick Cabin - C&O Standard Brick Cabin - Railroad Structures

Specific Item Information: This kit combines precision laser cut acrylic and wood parts to make a highly detailed model of the C&O Standard Brick Cabin. Although the design is a standard, the actual cabins built often had minor changes and or variations. This N Scale kit is designed to allow one to build a model of A cabin at Alleghany, including the distinctive brick pattern, with little extra modifications. The N Scale kit includes a basement extension and extra stairs to allow positioning on slopes.

Road Name History: Railroad structures include but are not limited to stations, depots, yard offices, interlocking towers and tanks. A train station, railway station, railroad station, or depot is a railway facility where trains regularly stop to load or unload passengers or freight.

It generally consists of at least one track-side platform and a station building (depot) providing such ancillary services as ticket sales and waiting rooms. If a station is on a single-track line, it often has a passing loop to facilitate traffic movements. The smallest stations are most often referred to as "stops" or, in some parts of the world, as "halts" (flag stops). Stations may be at ground level, underground, or elevated. Connections may be available to intersecting rail lines or other transport modes such as buses, trams or other rapid transit systems.
