BANTA MODELWORKS RIO GRANDE SOUTHERN RAILROAD PRO PATRIA MILL HO Scale Laser Kit Please read the following description carefully: If you have any questions, please email me before you bid! You are bidding on a new HO scale laser kit from Banta Modelworks. Banta Modelworks manufactures quality craftsman kits using a variety of materials such as laser cut basswood, styrene detail parts and Hydrocal plaster castings for masonry buildings. During 1902 the Pro Patria ore processing mill was constructed and an aerial tramway built up the middle of Mantz Avenue in Rico, Colorado to reach the Pro Patria mining tunnel. This large mill shipped hundreds of carloads of ore concentrate over the rails of the Rio Grande Southern to the Durango Smelter. The Pro Patria mill operated on an off and on basis until 1948 when it was shut down and eventually scrapped. Fortunately, although very little remains of the mill (see photo 9), this kit replicates it in amazing detail. Board on board construction consists of a laser cut plywood core covered by individual 2x12 strip wood. Because this kit utilizes laser cut wood parts, the hard part is already done. Corrugated metal siding and roofing, tarpaper roofing, a wealth of detail parts and a bunch of assembly templates to ease building stick assemblies round out the kit. Some previous modeling experience, lot’s of time and some layout space (or shelf space) is all you'll need. The HO scale dimensions are 15" deep, about 25" wide and 15" tall. Although the construction of this kit is time consuming, easy assembly makes this a super kit and a great addition to your railroad! All parts are in plastic bags with detailed instructions and templates included (see photo 8). The contents of all kits are verified before shipping. Thanks for looking and .
