Plano has specialized in providing photo etched details for the railroad modeler since 1989.
I've used their HO Scale metal walkways and trailer placards on the TTX Spine Car set I did.
As you know, certain plastic HO walkways weren't that great. Plano makes replacements.

Details West offers over 250 HO Scale items with more on the way. They make precision
castings, including diesel parts, trackside parts, ladders, hitches, cushion couplers and
brakewheels for freight cars. I used their Spine Car details to enhance the TTX Spine Car.

Downtown Deco makes some of the coolest hydrocal plaster building sets I've seen. The
HO Scale Alleyway Diorama I put together is essentially their DD-108 kit. Give one a try!

Jerry Quinn lives here in town and runs this amazing business. I have seen what they make
firsthand - and the stuff is really nice! From RR wall signs to RR mousepads... and everything
inbetween. These items make excellent, reasonable gift ideas! Tell 'em Mellow Mike sent you!
