The prototype for this kit is a CANADIAN PACIFIC standard branch line bunkhouse. Major crew change points usually had what became known as "railroad hotels" but some areas where there was a short layover utilized this building which housed 5 bunks with a wood/coal stove at one end and a chemical toilet at the other. Along with all of the normal features found in Kanamodel kits this model uses two styles of Northeastern siding to represent the wainscot bottom, and has self adhesive simulated tar paper roofing. This popular kit can be used in other applications where small bunkhouses were used such as logging camps, sawmills, etc. The footprint of this HO scale model is 2" x 7".
