Every now and then I see folks asking about dummy or replacement couplers. For years the go-to was the old PM Unimates. Those exact couplers are still available. Just look for Scale America here on FB or on your favorite interwebs and you can find them ( and some other N scale goodness). The original short, medium, long and body mounts are still there, plus a more recent version that will drop into a 1015 type box. Thanks for looking and please share the word if you do not see it in your group.

A few different scales had restocks this week.

N Scale Daylight Pass Trucks are back

HO has SOO Line Wood Caboose Kits, plus decals for the Soo Caboose and PRR Passenger Cars.

S Scale has 2 long out of stock decals back - CNW F Units and NYC PA Units.

Find them all at ScaleAmerica on the web! Have a great weekend!

We are going through the libraries and getting rid of duplicates, triplicates and things that don't fit our interest these days. All books are currently under $30 and can be found in the Random Stuff section of the web store.

Also, the web store now has at least something in every category! The last week or two we have added another 100+ items in various scales so that every heading now has something to look at. More to come as we keep finding and packing things.

Some odd ball stuff next week and then back to more N and S scale parts. Have a great week!

It has been an N Scale week with a few N Scale parts added along with a few Passenger Car kits. Will be working on more N scale over the next week or two - some additional parts and hopefully a few more kits!

This weekend we added 60+ S Scale details to the website. Parts for freight cars and locomotives. More to be added as we pack more little pieces!

At least two (maybe more) have not been offered before - the Evans boxcars ladders and extended coupler pockets. Still finding some neat things along the way.

Have a great modeling week!

The Wisconsin chapter of the NRHS sponsored a steam outing with Soo Line 1003. A day with coal smoke is always a great day!

Weekend Warehouse Work! We have come across a handful of 2nd run HO Scale Hiawatha Class A 4-4-2 Steam Locomotives. Each has been given a test run and made sure all major parts are intact. Includes original packaging and boxes - some boxes might have a little shelf wear or markings. DC locos, can be made DCC with an 8 pin plug in the tender.

Will be going over more stuff this week and may be able to add a handful of passenger cars and maybe even a complete set or two from the original run. Have a great week everyone!
