Title: JL Innovative Booker Perkins Produce - 2021 Winter Build Challenge
Post by: Bruce Oberleitner on January 05, 2021, 10:44:09 PM
Hi All,
I've decided to throw all caution to the wind and return to building some craftsman kits.  The first one on my list is from JL Innovative.  This is model #641 Booker Perkins Produce.  Some of you may remember this as a Durago Press kit from a few years back.  I am not sure if it's the same kit with a new name or it is in fact and updated kit.  It measures 4.25" X 4.75" in HO scale so it's a fairly small kit that can fit in lots of places around the layout.  I will get started on the kit next week.

Perkins Produce is classic model railroad kit. I've always liked it. I'm eager to see your results. Thanks for sharing your build.
