B.T.S. Encore Program


We constantly get calls from modelers looking for one of our discontinued kits. In response, we have started an Encore Program where older kits come back to life. A finished Encore kit will look like the original, but differ in packaging, details, and in some cases, materials, and instructions. Welcome back…. The Cabin Creek Coal Tipple in HO!!


Cabin Creek Coal Tipple


This tipple is a freelanced composite of several different tipples located in West Virginia and Pennsylvania. Three tracks are serviced here. A power house, the place where a small steam engine generates electricity to run the machinery of the tipple, is provided as is a small storage shed. From the back of the headhouse at the top, a covered conveyor runs up the mountain side. The Cabin Creek Coal Tipple is laser cut and engineered for easy construction. Other features include positionable doors, window sashes, and coal chutes. An ample supply of brass and white metal castings is included. Overall footprint is approximately 100 x 175 scale feet. See our web site for more info and photos.
