HO EBT Carpenter Shop Kit

Over 100 years old, the Carpenter Shop (or Carpentry Shop)(HAER building #33) in the Rockhill Furnace yard served as the base for the railroad's "Bridge and Building" crew. They specialized in keeping the EBT's windows, doors, facilities, and bridges in working order. Most of the building was actually used for storage while about one-quarter was used for smaller carpentry work. The wooden, post-and-beam Carpenter Shop has been endangered by the rotting of posts, sills and lower walls, causing it to list badly. The building is currently being restored through a grant to the EBTF from the FEBT, and is a top project for FEBT volunteers.

This is the fourth kit in a series of kits that model the shop buildings in the EBT Rockhill yard and this one is only available at the Company Store. Features of the kit include:

• As true to the prototype as possible
• Laser cut floor, interior framing, roof rafters, walls, battens, doors, windows, and sub-roof
• Corrugated metal roofing material

Kits of other shop buildings in the Rockhill yard are available elsewhere on this site.
