Time is money they say, not just for big business, but for small ones too. Keeping the freight moving is a tough job. It takes planning and timing to make sure loads arrive on schedule and empties are ready when new loads need to move. And that's where the freight forwarders come in.
Coordinating shipments to and from local customers, these busy facilities consolidate smaller loads into big ones. They contract with the railroads and truckers to keep them moving on time and under budget.
And they make a great addition to your HO Scale layout! Boxes, barrels, pallets, sacks, crates, packing cases - no two freight shipments are ever alike from this busy operation. Up front is a handsome brick office to monitor the paperwork. At the rear is the transfer building, where loads are exchanged from train to truck. When completed, the shape of the finished building is ideal for a small space or odd shaped area.
Great for late steam- and diesel-eras, this beautiful building comes with colorful sign decals and complete instructions.
