Two new kits will be available soon - a sardine carrier and a self-propelled barge.  Both kits are 1/87 scale (barge 7.5", sardine carrier 10") and include cast resin waterline hulls, laser-cut parts, and Britannia fittings.  I still have about a month's worth of work to do on them (instructions, cost analysis, etc.) but the molds and laser drawings are done and these two were built from production castings and laser parts.  Exclusive of paint drying time, each could probably be built over a couple weekends and might be a fun diversion from those beautiful but complex models we enjoy building so much.

An add-on kit with a barge tow with riprap or coal and another with rails.  There was a while here when tows with rail cars were transported over to the Delmarva peninsula more or less continuously.
