Walthers Cornerstone HO Scale Company House 2-Pack Kit - 933-3790

Walthers Cornerstone HO Scale Company House 2-Pack Kit - 933-3790 adds authentic worker housing to HO scale mining towns, railroad communities, factory neighborhoods, and residential scenes. Based on the simple homes built for miners, railroaders, and factory workers, thousands of these houses were constructed from the 1880s through the 1930s, and many remain in use today. This Cornerstone kit includes parts for two matching houses, each measuring 6-7/16 x 2-13/16 x 3-3/4" (16.3 x 7.1 x 9.4cm). Explore the complete Walthers Cornerstone model railroad buildings and structures collection for additional HO scale structures.

Company housing was commonly constructed near mines, factories, and railroad facilities in areas where workers needed homes close to their jobs. These straightforward residences could form entire neighborhoods or company towns, making this two-house set especially useful for creating believable communities alongside major industries and railroad operations.

Additional kits can be used to create rows of similar worker homes, while different paint schemes, landscaping, fences, vehicles, and other details can give individual properties their own character.

Expand Your Walthers Cornerstone Company Town

Walthers designed the Company House to work naturally with the Cottage Grove Church - 933-3655, Cottage Grove School - 933-3656, and River Road Mercantile - 933-3650, allowing modelers to expand worker housing into a more complete company town or residential community.
