The finished model 10501 is typical of bulk freighters moving iron ore, grain, cement, coal and other cargoes on the Lakes from the turn of the 20th century to the 1980s. It's patterned after St. Lawrence "canallers," smaller bulk carriers built to fit the locks on the St. Lawrence River prior to the opening of the St. Lawrence Seaway in 1959. Its small size makes it ideal for the average layout, as no compression is required to build an authentic model. As-built, it measures 36" 91.4cm in length and 6" wide, representing a 258' 78.6m long freighter.  The matching add-on center hull section 10502 is available to extend the overall length when a larger boat is desired. The kit includes all parts, fittings, and accessories for a larger complete model, including etched brass stanchions and a fully detailed wheelhouse interior. Main structural assembly is simplified by the use of one-piece castings.
