THANKS FOR ATTENDING THE SHOW!
Build-a-Train
With each release, RailSmith will bring passenger cars from across the spectrum of North America’s railroads, with the goal of building entire trains over a period-of-time. It is our plan to release cars that might be for a specific train, but you can use these cars as you see fit, as did the railroads.
Production plans are grand, but we believe they are also achievable. We do not have the capabilities to release an entire train at once, but being able to focus on one release (two-or-three cars at a time), we can build a train over time.

RailSmith Plans Revealed
My plan and hope is to create some very famous ‘name trains’ that have, in some cases, never been done in N scale.
