The Walthers Cornerstone Brick Freight Office in HO scale (Part# 933 - 2953) is a must - have for railroad model enthusiasts. It represents a key part of the railroad and industrial facilities from the 1900s to now. This kit is sized at 8 - 13/16 x 9 x 6 - 1/8 inches (22.4 x 22.9 x 15.6 cm). It was based on a real structure on Fowler Street, south of Milwaukee's depot. It was where businesses without their own sidings arranged rail service. Clerks in the freight office managed paperwork and billing. The adjacent freight house handled cargo transfers. Its classic American design fits any city terminal layout. You can use it as part of a larger industry or in a railroad yard. The kit includes authentic Milwaukee Road signs, and you can add your own for other railroads or shippers. With detailed plastic parts molded in appropriate colors and illustrated instructions, it's easy to build. Features include prototypical brick construction, an outside staircase, and realistic printed signs. It's a great addition to any Milwaukee or Milwaukee Road themed collection.

Using this Walthers Cornerstone Brick Freight Office is easy. First, carefully open the kit and lay out all the parts according to the illustrated instructions. Start assembling the main structure piece by piece, following the step - by - step guide. You can add the included Milwaukee Road signs or your own custom signs for a personalized touch. Place it in your desired location on the layout, whether it's in a city terminal, part of a larger industry, or a railroad yard. When it comes to maintenance, keep it away from direct sunlight and excessive moisture to prevent the plastic parts from warping or fading. If it gets dirty, you can gently clean it with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials as they may damage the detailed parts or the printed signs.
