New Walthers HO scale announcements

Walthers has announced two new Penn Central models in HO scale.

The second model is a Pullman-Standard 86-foot high-cube double-door boxcar in the WalthersProto series. These will be available in X numbers with a list price of $59.95.

Both of these models are expected to be available in Winter 2025.

The first issue of our new e-magazine, PC Modeler, is now available! This all-new free publication follows in the footsteps of several other railroad historical societies in producing an online magazine dedicated to articles and information for model railroaders of their railroad of interest. The online format also allows for longer, more in-depth modeling articles than would be possible in our print magazine.
