All steamed up behind SP No. 2472

Here at Wheels of Time, we are modelers at-heart wanting to capture the real thing in minature form.  What a better way to experience the real thing than with a ride behind a a real working steam locomotive!  My friends and I had a chance to do just that over the Easter weekend.  We hope you are getting out and enjoying a few excursion trips yourself.  These photos were mainly taken during the photo runby in Niles Canyon.  Enjoy the photos.   (SP steam engine is a Pacific type, SP Class P-8, No. 2472;  SP 2979 is heavyweight lounge car; bringing up the markers of the train is former SP Business Car "Oakland")

Coming soon ... new insulated boxcar with Superior plug doors in N scale.

We are working on a new insulated boxcar with Superior plug doors and . . .

What railroads used these really cool cars that kept the cargo ventilated and at a nice cool temperature? Enjoy the video!

Don't forget!

HO Piggy-Packers!  See your dealer or reserve directly!

A photo survey of side loader models!

It's been said that variety is the spice to life!  Here are photographs of side loaders other than the PC-90 Piggy-Packers that Wheels of Time is making in HO and N scales.  Some of these side loaders look very strange and awkward.  Enjoy.

Art that is precise.

Here's a screen shot of our next batch of PC&F Insulated Box cars.  Before I get a flood of emails, yes it's a work-in-progerss drawing!  

If you are fluent in Illustrator and Photoshop, and enjoy precise line work creation, such as font creation, placement of letterings and with good attention to details, do drop us an email.  We are looking for someone who would like to help us develop Wheels of Time paint and lettering diagrams for our products.  This will be a P/T contract position.Save & Close
