New Walthers Train Depot

Posted by Todd McWilliam on Sunday, October 3, 2004 4:45 AM

I opened my new MR ans saw that Walthers is coming out with a brick depot. this depot looks almost like the depot in my home town. I am really excited about this model, since I can't find a decent depot kit.

Walthers depot is based upon the Milwaukee Road depot in Wausau WI.(my home town and where I currently live) When I saw the catalog I went to the depot and checked out the depot versus the drawing that Walthers has in the catalog.Walthers nailed this one on the head.About the only difference is the length of the baggae area on the model being about 10 feet shorter. Cannot wait to get one myself.
