Aarmco Steel Building kit fits the time period of 1960 and later. The model was manufactured by Des Plaines Hobbies, and based on the BNSF mainline structure found near Kings Park, California. It is a simple kit, consisting of injection-molded styrene walls and two-piece roof. The main photo shows the kit as-is with no additional parts. The window frames and the door were all molded in. Photo #2 shows the kitbashed model by Gerry Evans. Photo #3 shows Greg's version which he built into a radio tower for the South Jersey S Gaugers's club layout. There are product reviews of the kit in the December 2002 and February 2004 NASG Dispatch issues.

Notes:

In 2004 Jerry Porter and the NASG announced this project. The idea was to create various brick, window, pilaster, and door-opening sections to allow the modeler to form his/her own building shape and size. In late 2006 it was reported that banta modelworks had taken over the project. The kit was finally released in 2009 at the NASG Convention. Gerry Evans did a product review of it in the October 2009 issue of the NASG's Dispatch.
