HO Scale Pella Depot Model

Pella Depot, a classic North American brick depot, is a perfect addition to any steam or diesel-era layout scene. Based on a Rock Island prototype built in 1890, this historic depot is currently a museum, typical of brick depots used from coast to coast. Injection-molded parts are quick and easy to assemble, with colors and clear window glazing included, eliminating the need for painting. The kit also includes printed signs, window treatments, and complete instructions. Measuring 12 x 5 x 3-1/2" (30 x 12.7 x 8.8cm), the finished kit is available for the first time as an easy-to-build kit.

This classic brick passenger station features an authentic design with a bell roof, similar to designs used by many Railroads from the 1890s to the present. The printed signs, window shades, and "leaded glass" for door transoms add to the depot's attention to detail. These are hobby-grade products, securely packed for protection during shipping, but users are advised to handle them with care when removing from the package to avoid potential breakage.

The Pella Depot is a valuable addition to any model railroad layout, capturing the essence of classic North American brick depots that served as important hubs for passengers and freight transportation throughout the country's history. Its easy-to-assemble design and attention to authentic details make it an attractive choice for model railroad enthusiasts looking to enhance the realism and historical authenticity of their layouts.
