Hello? Operator? I've been cut off!

7/25/2011 - If you tried to contact me by email in the last 5 months, I apologize for not getting back to you. My email program has been failing to collect messages from my AmesvilleShops.com mail accounts. I recently discovered the problem (I wondered why I had not had any orders or inquiries for months) and I'm in the process of answering your messages now.  I'm very, very sorry for the delay!  It's corrected now and I hope to provide the fast service you should be accustomed to from me.  Thanks for your understanding and patience!

There were some production delays on the new Pennsylvania GA gondolas but I hope to have them ready to ship by the end of August 2011.  I'm ready to take your reservations and I will let you know by email when the cars are finally available.  MKT gondolas and NYC Boxcars are available now.

For those who have inquired about our latest project, Here to There - Car Forwarding with Waybills - I'm in the process of redesigning certain parts of the program after some really good suggestions were made during my first beta test.  The new features will make the program easier to use and more useful as you add more data to it. I'm hoping for a second beta test later this year, and maybe a first release before Christmas 2011.  I'll be posting more information on the program in the next couple of weeks!

What is Amesville Shops about?

AmesvilleShops.com is a website dedicated to serving the needs of the 'Golden Age of Railroading' modeler, where you can purchase model railroad cars based on late 19th century railroad equipment like Boxcars and Gondolas and Flatcars in HO scale.  The time between the U.S. Civil War and the turn of the 20th century has traditionally been a poorly represented time period of the model railroading hobby, which we hope to change.  We at AmesvilleShops.com are working hard to put inexpensive resin craftsman kits of common freight cars form the period into your hands at reasonable prices.
