Do you know where I can get this building?

I just discovered this model of the Rio Grande north yard tower. There is a web address at the lower left corner of the box but I can’t see the whole adress.

I don’t even know if it’s scratchbuilt or if it’s a kit.

Do you know where I can get this building?

I’m pretty familiar with the various HO structure kits out there and can’t say that I ever recall seeing a kit like this one. Then again, it just might be a very limited kit offering from some little outfit specializing in D&RG items. Even with that said, from the photo it looks to me like someone was illustrating their scratchbuilt model, what with the prototype photo in the background and the model sitting on a modeler’s cutting mat.

I just managed to get the email address to the owner of the photo. Hopefully he will answer my question.

Thanks.

Ok, I have the answer to my question from the builder, it’s scratchbuilt.

electrolove,
AFAIK, there are no models available of North Yard tower.

Fortunately, it does look like a relatively easy scratchbuild project.

Yeah, it looks like you have a cool little scratchbuild project to do. With the help of the builder of the one you inquired about, it should be gravy. It looks like a lot of fun!!
