Time has come to find a new home for

Babbitt Railway Supply.

This project has been in limbo here at B.T.S. for too long. Getting it up and running has been fraught with challenges including the new building construction being under 5 feet of snow for 6 months, followed by my diagnosis of a brain tumor, surgery to remove that tumor, the physical challenges resulting from that surgery, and finally the sudden death of my friend who was to be my partner in this venture.

The line of O scale locomotive kits consist of cast bronze boilers, NWSL gearing, cast aluminum or sheet brass tenders, and brass and white metal details. Over the years, many upgrades have been incorporated by previous owners.

These kits build into basic, good running locomotives and provide a solid foundation for super detailing. Currently, the line contains a 4-6-0, 4-4-0, 4-6-2, 4-4-2, 2-6-0, and 4-8-2, all using 70-inch drivers, and three different tenders.

When I purchased the line, the previous owner promised there were sufficient parts to assemble at least 15 locomotive kits. The package includes all inventory, tooling, and paper files related to the BRS.

It is being sold 'as is, where is' and the price is in the low five-figure range.

Serious inquiries only. Email bill@btsrr.com or call 304-823-3729
