A great trackside business in any size city or town, local lumber yards receive all sorts of building materials in box cars and aboard flat cars as well. A great destination for steam- or diesel-era wayfreights, this model builds into a typical operation that fits almost any available space. The storage buildings, which protect lumber from the weather, are designed so that you can build one large, covered building, or two free-standing, open sided buildings. There's a small office to handle the paperwork, which can also be placed along a busy street and used as a store and showroom. Lots of colorful sign decals brighten up the operation, and complete instructions make for fast and fun construction.
