Time Travel - Three Train rides that will take you back in time!
1. Fort Steele
Fort Steele was one of several gold rush towns in the early history of British Columbia. Originally the settlement was called Galbraith's Ferry after the ferry service that was established to cross the Kootenay River. The town was later named Fort Steele after the Northwest Mounted Police Superintendent Samuel Steele.
Beginning around 1899 Fort Steele began to suffer the fate of other gold rush towns, as the Canadian Pacific Railway route favored the nearby town of Cranbrook. In 1961 Fort Steele was declared an historic park. The Friends of Fort Steele Society have worked hard to preserve and restore over 60 buildings, to create a fascinating tourist destination, which can include a ride on an early 1900's steam train. Check out the first of our Fort Steele Structures.
2. Alberni Pacific Railway
Train Trip Takes Turn for the Worse!
Who would have expected the little town of Port Alberni BC to have such a high crime rate! What started out as a pleasant ride on a vintage steam train ended up with the notorious "Beaufort Gang" coming out of the forest on horseback to hold up the train.

3. Maharajas’ Express Train
The Maharajas' Express train in India is one of the most luxurious trains in the world. The train is created and operated by Indian Railways and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC), and gives passengers a choice of five itineraries, each one visiting examples of some of Indias most prominent tourist attractions, such as the legendary Taj Mahal. If you have ever dreamed of being treated like a Prince, this might be your chance.

Measured for Immortality - A race against time!
We are losing many historic buildings to development. Several of our plans are of historic buildings that no longer exist. Some call it progress, some call it tragedy. We have often been called to the scene of a historic building slated for demolition. Sometimes we get there in time, sometimes we don't. This time we did. If we can't save the building itself, at least we can preserve it in scale.
Check out the CNR Depot in Cereal, Alberta
The CNoR 3rd class depot appeared in many locations across Canada and parts of the United States. One of the survivors is being turned into a museum in this prairie town that gets it's name from the crops that were produced in the area.

Interested in Z, S, or T Scales?
Visit our tutorial for information.
Our plans are available in N, HO, OO, O, and G scale, but all is not lost if you model in another scale. If you are modeling in cardstock it may just be a matter of print-reducing. If you are scractch building and don't want to do the math, just choose the next larger scale and print reduce our traceable templates.

Interested in miniature model making?
Scale model plans for HO Scale , N Scale, OO Scale, and O Scale model railroad buildings and structures. Create realistic, inexpensive scale model buildings for your model railroad layout, diorama, or toy train set. Build to accurate scale with Computer Aided Design miniature plans or simply cut out the traceable templates. As an added feature, you can print out color patterns to card stock to create paper models of buildings and structures. If 'kit-bashing' is more your style, try customizing, or combining patterns to create a unique scale model structure.
