HO & N Scale Product Announcements from Briggs Models

This message is intended to inform modellers of a new release from Briggs Models in HO & N Scale. As a consultant on this project, I am posting this announcement on behalf of the manufacturer in the hope of reaching as many potential interested modellers as possible.


CN/BCR Switch Stand Kit

N-11 N Scale CN/BCR Switch Stand Kit (2) - $5.00 CAD
N-12 N Scale CN/BCR Switch Stand Kit (10) - $24.00 CAD
H-1 HO Scale CN/BCR Switch Stand Kit (2) - $6.00 CAD
H-2 HO Scale CN/BCR Switch Stand Kit (10) - $28.00 CAD

This switch stand kit comprises a set of one piece stand bases cast in polyurethane resin and a sprue of etched stainless steel detail parts including the tables, handles, switch locks, staffs, targets, and washers.  As completed the kit yields an accurate representation of the Racor 31B switch stand, which was used by Canadian National, British Columbia Railway, BC Hydro Railway, and a host of other Canadian railways.  The kit can be assembled as a static model or as a working model with rotating staff and targets.  Production is limited to 300 kits for the two-packs and 40 kits for the ten-packs.


Whats In The Kit



From L to R:  switch stand bases, etched stainless steel fret, drilling jigs (HO Scale top, N Scale bottom)

Sort of looks like the switch stand to the right of the locomotive in this picture (pictured has a taller target stand):
