Advanced Kits
This is one building that belongs as much in the "West" as it does here in Maine ! The laser-cut "bay window" is what this one is all about, combine that with the generic simplicity of a general store & you have a building that can be used for anything.
This is an “N”-scale only kit. Despite its’ visual complexity some patience combined with moderate building skills will get you through this one fairly easily
Like most Bar Mills kits this one tells a story. Now using not just one building, but three! From the corner IGA with it’s 2nd & 3rd floor apartments, to “Buster’s Barbershop” and the adjoining newspaper stand, there isn’t much more you can add this scene
"Busters" actually exists here in Maine. And if you don't need a haircut you can always turn it into a pool hall or a local cafe ! Complete with newspaper stand that can be built individually.
With its board-&-batten walls and “split-shake” roofing this kit offers a uniquely maritime look. Complete with roofing stencils, cast rowboats & lobster traps “Captain Jack’s” will set you up with a complete scene.
This simple building will work great along the highway or next to the tracks. Loaded with interesting details it can be themed for many different kinds of businesses... it was actually based on a seafood distributor here in Maine !
This is without-a-doubt one of our most favorite kits. From a city street to a railroad track, you can locate this baby in just about any location.
This "taller" structure features a "cast resin" brick wall to help set it apart from other building on your layout.
"Hunch Landing" kit... a working waterfront with all the character & goodies you'd expect from a foreground model !
This simple little shop is modeled after one we built for ourselves on the Bar Mills Sn2 layout. Although far from complex the multiple rooflines and interesting facade help make this building unique.
Available in all 4 major scales this traditional architecture lends itself to a series of geographical areas. When built without the elevator extension the structure becomes more generic and can serve several industries. Comes with loads of details.
Mooney’s Plumbing” was based on a Bob Hayden article many years ago... originally called the “8-Ball Locomotive Works”.
This three building complex is complete with a loading dock. We modeled it as a land-based business but a simple extension of the supporting floor columns would yield a great looking waterfront industry as well !
This special issue of the smaller decrepit structure that originally was part of the "Hart's Transfer" limited-edition kit is now available on its own !
This one's pretty obvious, either you need one of these or you don't... but still... don't you wish you did ?
This “false-front” background building, offers a wealth of detail . From it’s laser-cut roof-mounted billboard & cupola to its large industrial type windows. Its half-thickness will take up less of your modeling space than you might think.
Typical of small industries this classic design can be themed to suit many purposes. While we call it a stove company it could as easily be a machine shop, farm store, or any other type of revenue generating business along a railroad.
The perfect trackside industrial manufacturing facility. A small footprint and an interesting architectural style helps to define this structure as something other than what we've done in previous Bar Mills kits
The Gravely Building” was something we came up with based on a free-lanced model we had done. We’d like to tell you that there was a “grand plan” behind the thing... but it’s not the case. We came up with what we thought was a pretty “cool” structure.
Available in HO/S/O scales this versatile structure is based on a prototype hotel, but can be converted and used as a combination convenience store/ filling station/ hotel, as well as several other themed concepts.
If you’re ready for a creative challenge this kit is for you. Interesting roof-lines, unique signs & windows, and a great footprint that can be used trackside... or not ! One of our favorites.
This little structure can be built for use on land... or on a waterfront scene ! It’s just in the way you approach it. We’ve seen it turned into just about everything, including a service station.
“Wanda’s” is one of the best selling structures we’ve ever produced. Originally designed by Pete Willstein of New York this lanky structure has an attitude all of its’ own.
