Walthers announces Rural USA - a series of eleven new Cornerstone® structures. These all-new models include three detailed plastic kits and seven lasercut wood kits plus a resin kit that can be used individually or together to create custom scenes. Two barns (one plastic and one lasercut wood), a farmhouse and a variety of outbuildings will add country character to any layout.
Fast Facts: There's nothing better than a drive (or a train ride) through the countryside to ease stress and bring on a peaceful state of mind. In many places, rural America is little changed from decades past. Long lines of freight cars slide through the hills and passengers in observation cars look out at green pastures, barns, farmhouses and rustic sheds. As trains transport agricultural products, commodities and passengers throughout the country, they frequently pass through rural areas, making the countryside a favorite modeling theme on layouts in every era.
Features: Rural USA kits are based on American prototypes and feature authentic details. The three plastic kits are molded in color with finely detailed parts. All seven lasercut wood kits are made in the USA of superbly detailed lasercut wood parts, precision-fit components and some include self-stick "asphalt" roll siding, roof ribs and rafter details. The resin kit is designed to fit both barns in the series. Rural USA kits come with complete instructions and are designed to fit popular modeling eras. Detailed descriptions of each kit are available online at walthers.com.
