HO Structure Kits K-Laser-Art

The prototype for our kit is located in Livingston Manor, NY. It was built in 1884 for A.P. Dubois, a successful merchant in town. In fact, the Dubois family seemed to own a good chunk of the town between the general mercantile store and a retail coal and oil dealership. They even had a street named after them. Their house was located adjacent to the railroad tracks and across the street from the family store. The house remained the family home for many years. It still stands today, beautifully restored, a survivor from an earlier era.

Kit includes laser cut siding, peel and stick trim and windows and resin chimneys.

President Ronald Reagan Boyhood Home
The boyhood home of President Ronald Reagan was a modest family rented home.  The Reagan family moved into the home on December 6, 1920 at 816 South Hennepin in Dixon, IL.  Ron and his brother Neil shared a small room in the house where they lived for three years.

Today the Reagan family home has been restored and is open to the public.  It has been preserved, as it would have looked when the family lived there in 1920.

The Branchline LaserArt kit #603 of the Ronald Reagan Boyhood Home is an exact model as the home was in 1920 with the exquisite detail that represents every Branchline LaserArt Kit.

Features include easy to follow instructions along with easy to apply plastics roof strip shingles, plastic strip foundation, and resin detail parts chimney and cellar hatch.  This house will fit in any neighborhood of the 1920s to the present day.

The prototypes for our kit was built at Clark’s, near Campbell Hall, NY on the New York, Ontario & Western. Similar designs could be found throughout the Northeast. The O&W was unique in that in built many of its own creameries. As a result they were most likely painted in the railroad’s colors - a cream/buff wall color with green trim and red window sashes. Other typical creamery colors are gray with white trim and all white

Our meat packing plant is based on a prototype built by Swift in Burlington, VT and modeled on the New England, Berkshire & Western railroad of the Rensselaer Model Railroad Society. Similar buildings could be seen throughout the Northeast and in other areas of the country, and the design was not unique to Swift with similar designs being used by Armour and others. The building is a classic Greek Revival type with half returns on the front. The garage annex is most likely an addition to the original building, built when trucks became more common. Such a plant would get in whole carcasses in meat reefers specific to the brand. Butchers in the plant would cut up the carcasses for retail trade, and from here the finished product would be shipped out by truck to retail locations.
