There is no greater accomplishment, or satisfaction, than in building something yourself. Fortunately, in this era of supplied entertainment, where accomplishment is often measured by how many levels have been completed, vintage locomotive kits from Roundhouse, Mantua and Tyco still offer the challenge, and opportunity, to create your own unique model railroading masterpiece. You will find no greater selection of these great kits from a bygone era than here at MRRHQ's Vintage Model Steam Locomotive Works.

Excerpt from included Roundhouse 317 documents:

"This model is a modified replica of switchers used by the Southern Pacific Lines and in service for over 40 years. This prototype was built by the Baldwin Locomotive works during the years 1906-1911 and given the the designation Class 1100 by the Southern Pacific Lines."
