Custom Traxx |
The TS series of resin bodied traction kits will be offered in very limited numbers over the next few years. When the runs are exhausted, they may not be repeated. This methodology will enable us to make many different shells that will be compatible with the Bowser traction mechanism, enabling discerning modelers to acquire and operate some unique vehicles. All the major items that you need to get a completely running car, including appropriate Bowser drives, trolley poles, decals, etc., are available from Custom Traxx at reasonable prices. No need to surf the internet or drive to shops. These kits are intended for experienced traction modelers as minor operations such as drilling holes, parts assembly and minor rewiring may be required. Each kit is assembled when ordered and will not normally be available at model train shows or from other dealers. |
| Boston (ex-Dallas) Double End PCC Kit - [TS16P - $175.00] |
The TS16 HO scale kit for the Pullman-built Boston ex-Dallas "Texas Ranger" double end PCC cars, series 3322-3346, will be available about November 15. The first sample production shell, is shown below during testing and evaluation. The kit, only available powered, contains the shell, the Bowser designed, developed and produced pewter floor with the upgraded Bowser 125100 drive with blackened nickel silver wheels, Miniatures by Eric HT-P2 trolley poles, two SCTC-1 trolley pole pivots, Custom Traxx CN-3322 decals and some additional finishing details including resilient wheel and maroon belt line striping decals along with the unique "antler" trolley pole hooks. Notice to all modelers interested in this car: Due to current economic conditions, there will be limited production of these cars. Those who have made reservations for these cars were notified on October 28, 2009 via email and will be notified in order as soon as the cars arrive. Please inquire before ordering as these cars are being produced individually. |
| Toronto Canadian Light Rail Vehicle (CLRV) - [TS17P - $159.95] | |
The TS17 HO scale kit consists of a resin body shell, cast by Miniatures by Eric, of the 4000-4100 series CLRVs currently operated in Toronto. As of November 1, 2009, the kit is only available powered. The kit contains a one piece body shell, roof details, side window dividers, front and rear windshields, trolley catcher, four Bowser 1341 sideframe mounts, a complete set of premier CN-4100 decals and the Bowser 125163 pewter floor. The kit is supplied with the upgraded Bowser 125100 mechanism with blackened nickel silver wheels. One Miniatures by Eric Trolley pole along with one SCTC-1 trolley pole base bushing is included. Some modeling skill is required to properly assemble and finish this kit, which is priced at $159.95. The Bowser 125163 pewter floor, designed for this CLRV shell and the Bowser traction mechanism, is available separately for $5.95. Bowser traction mechanisms are available separately from Custom Traxx. More data on these units are available elsewhere in this catalog. Note: Applying the decals on the body shell contained in this kit is not for the beginner. Only those modelers well-experienced in the application of decals should attempt applying decals contained in this kit. Modelers may find it easier to mask and paint the red areas due to the difficulties an getting decals to cover the front dasher area. |
