Sneak Peek at My Next Big Project

I always like for TRW to be THE place for news. Here is a sneak peek at what I have been working on lately. Injection molded Traffic Barrels will be offered in N, HO, O and G scales. Each Barrel has separately molded Handles, Amber Lens, die stamped Rubber Base and Orange/White Reflective Strips. These will be sold in 6-Packs and should be out late 1Q, 2012.

BTW: The amber lenses can be installed or omitted as required. They also have a light pipe that goes into to the interior of the barrel so a LED can be mounted inside.

Was thinking about how to do these a couple days ago.  Now I don't have to.  Would also be nice for some of the old fashion globe, oil filled type that was used into the 60's for us transition modelers.

Bob, what else do you have planned?

Can you bring some transfer caboose goodness to the show?

I don't have the money to keep up with all the good SH%t that keeps coming out.  But between these and DKS' line pole transformers, I know what I'm asking for from Santa!

That's a cool design that will really benefit from having the ability to be lighted.  As a former D.O.T. engineering apprentice/inspector, it's in my blood to have construction scenes on my layout at some point.   So I'm definitely in!

I will be bringing them Daniel. You will have to wait and see what is coming soon, but there is a reason why I added Insulators and Large Power Substations to the product line.   8)
