New Woodland Scenics mobile homes in multiple scales

Anyone seen these yet?..I look forward to seeing these in kit form!..The details look a little crude on the N scale version, but not as bad as some of the other options for mobile homes in N scale.

Will have to take a look at this.

I need one without all the accoutrements for my Trainworx Soo Line flat car...

They appear to fill a niche - though for the record the NuComp trailers can still be had occassionally on eBay, and there are several Shapeways designers that do them in N scale as well.

Based on the description, this thing is gonna be expensive:

The $ on a trailer park would add up fast! I only see one trailer style though.

Looks good though. 8)

Just remember most of the product photos are of larger scales. I look them up on e-bay to see actual N scale photos.

Two scientists create a teleportation ray, and they try it out on a cricket. They put the cricket on one of the two teleportation pads in the room, and they turn the ray on.
The cricket jumps across the room onto the other pad.

Does it come with a black and green 1975 Chrysler New Yorker?

I'll need shopping carts too! The mobile home park I'm modeling is along the CSX former B&O mainline, there was a bar at the end of the park and there was several guys one night that left the bar totally wasted, I was doing some night train watching with some friends when these drunk guys came up to the tracks with buggies stolen from the grocery store by the park, they put them on the tracks for trains to hit after one train went buy and hit several carts we left figuring the police were going to show up.  :facepalm: This was in the 80s and they had an old boom box with thrash metal playing. :D

One of the prominent ones along the Shenandoah River in VA has a Confederate flag colored roof and lots of those garden decoration flags by the door. It's very noticable.

I'm afraid though that if I build an N scale trailer park that it will cause a tornado outbreak on the layout. :D

Heh, you say that, but not sure you realize just how much truth there is in that statement!  I've chased along the old Middle Division west of Lewistown, PA with various East Coast Asshats and I gotta tell ya...some really sketchy chunks of Appalachia that make Deliverance seem like a walk down Fifth Avenue.  Trailers with tarps for roofs, inbred families of dogs under porches, etc.  Every stereotype you could imagine made manifest.  <shudder>
