MPM Hobbies BBB Business Review
Whistlestop Junction was the first structure we ever produced to be made available through hobby shops. Available in both “N” and “HO” scales, we wanted to make sure we were going to take a different approach to our models, not simply do some re-hash of an American Model Builders kit (the best-known leaser kits available in stores at the time). Don't get us wrong, we like AMB kits, but we figured “they” would be “them”, and “we” would be “us”, and what good would honestly come of just another “copycat” company? Even this early on, we wanted to do something special, and we did! From the laser-cut roofing (I did the photo in the model in one day, as you can tell by the sloppy roofing job), to the etched nail holes, Bar Mills kits would have to be both different and affordable. This station is generic, and that is what we were looking to do. As free-lance modelers ourselves, I didn’t see Bar Mills as doing much with "prototype"-oriented stuff. Even to this day, our structures tend to be more “Imagineered” than “engineered”. The building was a copy of one that the late Rob Corriston did; it’s fancy, but not really, and unassuming, but not really. Anyway, you get the idea.
