Bringing the Baggage Cars to Your Trains

RailSmith is excited to announce that we are working with Wheels of Time to bring you the very best Head End cars for our Build-a-Train series of train consists!

Pressed with the issue of needing heavy-weight Mail & Express Baggage cars, we have made an agreement with, in our opinion the best HW baggage cars in N Scale, Wheels of Time.  It was either this, or we would have to tool up our own new models. Why should we do that, because we do not think we can improve on the amazing Wheels of Time model.

Over the next several years we are commissioning Wheels of Time bring to the marketplace cars that we all need for our trains. You will find most of these in our RailSmith Consist Charts.

Orders will be direct to Wheels of Time and will be similar to how we do it at RailSmith. You will order direct from their web site.  Here is a link to that special RailSmith-Wheels of Time page. You will place your order in advance to assure your delivery. These special cars will only be sold direct to consumer.

We will be working very closely with them to match colors, fonts and the details that you have come to appreciate from RailSmith.

We are looking forward to working with Wheels of Time to help fulfill our need for more great trains!

Nothing better than receiving that white box from Lowell Smith.

So glad our big Alaska trip happened when it did.  It was the trip of a lifetime for me and Nina, thank you so much for organizing it.

Jim and Jo Ann K.

Every aspect of the trip was professionally done.  You and Barbara were on top of every change and your matter-of-fact assurances speak highly of your professionalism.  Jo Ann is a retired chef  and we know what good food is, and the meals provided on the CZ trip were stellar! BRAVO to you and Barbara for…

Every new release from your Signature Series gets me revved up for the rails.

K.

I am looking forward to many more releases in the new year. I stayed up really late on Christmas to talk to Santa when he came by our house. I asked him for an n-scale SP&S 700, and he said that was out of his league and I’d better call you.

B. Kutch

Love your 3-rail O Scale Atlas Woodside Reefer series. Looking forward to future issues.

S. Reames

I received my observation/business car today and – like all of my other cars from you – I love it!

You know I’m always looking forward to the next release and its arrival with great anticipation. I treasure my Lowell Smith Signature collection.

Gordon and Dorothy

I have never been treated as graciously and in a manner more suited to a VIP in my life, as I was on our train trip.  It’s obvious how you’ve made your life a success story.  Looking around the train and seeing your friends I’m pretty sure they  were all made to feel very special by you, and your…
