Solid trains raced across country with their perishable loads. Supplying ice for the cars in transit was a huge industry. Railroads built ice houses and platforms, like this kit, about every 250-300 miles. Here, entire trains could be serviced and on the move in minutes. This complete kit includes a detailed Ice House, based on a prototype in Antigo, Wisconsin, plus a modular Icing Platform, from a Pacific Fruit Express design. Lots of add-on details, including an optional platform roof (used in warm areas to shade ice and slow melting), roof vents and 24 ice blocks are included. The plastic parts are molded in color for easy assembly and complete instructions are provided. Review: Quality and appears to be very durable. - Very nice, good quality Review: Great kit for N scale - Good model when assembled. The work platforms have the most detail and were a bit of a challenge but worth it. The building lacked detail but was easy to put together. Paint to taste, the building will need it. ## Features - These are hobby grade products securely packed for protection in shipping - Please handle with care when removing from package or breakage could occur ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000HTDORA | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (178) | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Weight | 1.27 pounds | | Item model number | 933-3049 | | Manufacturer | Walthers, Inc. | | Manufacturer recommended age | 14 years and up | | Product Dimensions | 9 x 2.5 x 14 inches | ## Images ![Series Kit HO Scale Ice House and Icing Platform,grey, 8 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/912bX44Mk5L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Quality and appears to be very durable. *by E***. on December 24, 2025* Very nice, good quality ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great kit for N scale *by B***. on December 24, 2021* Good model when assembled.
