Hi again, everyone this is Robert with some news for you
about Walthers. Walthers is bringing back some older products from its
Cornerstone line. They are bringing back their Waterfront Series. There are
eight structures and a number of detail parts for this line. The company is
advertising a new product from Sylvan Models to go with their kits; it is a
Tramp Steamer in resin. There are a number of products that could be used with
these kits, to build a great piece of waterfront property. If you are modeling
an east coast railroad, this is some great stuff to add to your layout. It
would be perfect for building a downtown Baltimore port area addition. In
Walthers fashion the kits will work on a number of railroads, check them out.
I am good a finding deals, as you all may know from my tool
tips from past posts. I was looking at Walthers Flyer today and noticed that
they are having a sale. This is not news at all, because they are always having
sales. The savings on most of their products are not that big of a deal. They
have some savings that are a few dollars per item. This is good if you are
buying a bunch of stuff, every dollar helps, right?
Then I did a search on just structures from their
Cornerstone line. What did I find, you ask? I found a great big sale on their
Ashland Iron line. As you know some of these kits are hard to find in hobby
shops and when you do you break the bank with the purchase. I don’t know how
long the sale is on, but I know it is on today. These items had the
best sale prices that I have seen on the site in a while. It was not just a $5
discount or even $10, much better.

This is a great start to building a steel mill on your
layout. Walthers reports also that all of these products are in-stock ready to
be ordered. There are a few other structure kits that are on sale, some of the Ethanol products and the Transfer Table for your engine house too.
Thanks for taking the time to stop by, please do yourself a
solid and check Walthers out before these items are gone. These products are
perfect for those of you modeling the B&O or Pennsylvania railroads, any
place that steel was made.
If you are interested you should pick up this book too. The Model Railroader's Guide To Steel Mills from Model Railroader Books. You can order it from Kalmbach or find it on Amazon.
Have a good one and see you next time.
Happy Modeling,
