Dear Customers,

Kanamodel, a local Canadian company, makes kits for modelers, especially CN and CNR and CPR fans.  They use real prototypical buildings and make them according to the designs and plans used by the rail lines themselves - scaled down to either HO or N.  Here's a brand new one that is based on a Vancouver landmark:

A crossing gate that guarded a track having 12 passenger trains passing and as many freight ones. The plans were standard CPR plans drawn in November 1915.  This building was held up by bent rails and no model of this type of building has ever been available in kit form.

You all know about the prairies and the grain complexes with a grain elevator and grain bin, a yard office and a grain auger - which they have done for all the major ones like Cargill, UGG, and Alberta, etc. 

But Kanamodel also does a lot of other things, like holding yards for stock on the move, and speeder sheds, tool sheds, express offices, major stations, and small town stations.
