Cascade Creek Car Shops

By Jim Ellis/photos by the author

Master builder Jim Ellis shared his car building techniques and complete drawings of four different styles of cars used on his Cascade Creek layout. These free-lanced, 24-foot cars are based on Carter Bros. practices. Jim's article in the 2006 On30 Annual included complete instructions and drawings, save for the materials list. You can download the materials list in PDF format. You can also see Jim's latest efforts in the 2010 On30 Annual.
