Fine models of Interurbans, Streetcars and Light Rail Vehicles, manufactured in very small series, on demand or as uniques https://interurban-models.myshopify.com
... but there is a picture from IC&E #94, an then the car is credited as CCCo built. IC&E was controlled by Ohio Electric from 1907 to 1921

As far as I can identify, the car in the picture above is #93 of the Indiana Columbus & Eastern, identical to #92. Shows only some of typical CCCo constructing patterns, so maybe from another builder.

N-scale color printing is primarily a matter of high dimensional precision. Things have to fit together. Did you guess the prototype? The model is exact, but the paint scheme is not, that is just a test bed to train my color printing skills

American passenger cars in N scale are becoming increasingly difficult to obtain, if it's not for the great "name trains". That's why we starting to make small runner packs.
We follow our own desires and start with a DELAWARE & HUDSON set of three, full color printed

The description still refers to the car as « unpainted », but I produce this car now color printed, matching the Union Traction paint scheme of medium dark red and a green roof

On the workbench: Union Traction of Indiana heavy steel Interurban, HO scale.
The model (sold without drives) makes a test run on borrowed NWSL-Stanton motor trucks, to check that all fits and tight curves are well negotiated.

Placing the upper cornerstones on the HO scale Indianapolis Traction Terminal. Still some work to do: modeling the upper Cornice, and making and placing 336 more windows

The tiny dummy wheels of the exchange floors don't roll, but the trucks rotate, cars can stand on curved track. Available soon on interurban-models.myshopify.com

How it is easy to swap a Tomytec TR04 drive with our dummy floors.
Any new "vitrine" model of our N scale Cincinnati curved side cars can be put in service with a motor drive, and go back into the shelf liberating the drive for another model.

A 6-year-old just lost his mother. A woman was shot in the face in front of her wife.

The swift, lockstep attempt to dehumanize and villainize Renee Nicole Good might be the most depraved thing we've seen yet from these ghouls and their supporters. These people are utterly fucking dead inside.

Some more official "acceptance runs" of the N scale Northern Texas Traction "Crimson Limited". The train set takes 103 mm (4in) curves with ease

How it works: 15% US Import duty is paid by US residents when ordering. This amount is transferred by us to the US tax authorities at time of shipment, during customs declaration process. The amount is notified on the CN23 form attached to the parcel. No remaining charges when package is received

Yay! Shipping parcels works smoothly again between France and the United States.
Thanks to our thorough understanding of customs forms, Harmonized Commodity System numbers and country of origin details, the first parcels arrived without any problems, after a 3-month break

It is peak ERIE, pre-merger: Producing a batch of "Thru Line Coaches gives me the opportunity to run a number of Erie cars

The Crimson Limited rolls through the plaines of Texas! N scale "pre-production sample" of fine Northern Texas Traction cars make first laps. Full color printed, designed for Tomix drives. Available soon.

Half a mistake, I would say: Mountain View (and mostly the whole SF area) was Southern Pacific. Union Pacific depended on their tracks to reach SF. This was probably a publicity run.

Sending packages to the United States could be possible again soon. Customs duties (15% from France) and fees will be calculated - and paid! - when the package is shipped (in France by yours truly) Postal handling fees should be moderate. I have to calculate now how all this will add up.

Being a little bit under-employed, with my 3D garage factory halted due to geopolitical issues, I found some time to make progress on my Indianapolis Traction Terminal HO scale model. Now I'm tackling the most difficult parts, the brick moldings of the stories 4 to 9
