1/87 HOn3-23 La Belle D&RG Postal Car HOn3 Narrow Gauge - Craftsman Model
Wood and Metal Model Kit, Box Condition: Good+
During the golden era of realistic train models, La Belle Woodworking Company created perhaps the very finest scale kits of early American passenger equipment. The kit features die cut hardwood parts (no balsa) such as pre-cut and scribed sides with all windows and doors factory cut, car ends done in the same fashion, carved clerestory roof, tinted clear clerestory window material, excellent underside details & other metal details, building instructions and full size plans. I have seen these models built and they look identical to the real prototypes. The kit has not been started. Inventoried complete with all parts and includes plans and instructions. Please read the article on this website about older HO train kits and the modeling revolution they caused in the late 1930s/1940s.
