This wagon company is the typical back woods business that prospered in the early 1900's.  The wagon company was named after my grandfather, Roy G. Swan.  Quite a number of the On30 modelers requested that I build something of this nature for their model railroads.

The metal shop, where the frame and axles are built, has walls that are constructed of stone, with each stone being laid up one at a time.  As you can see the metal roofs are in really bad shape, covered with rust and full of dents.  The larger clapboard sided building is where the wooden wagon sections are built and assembled into the finished product.  The numerous parts, for the wagon assemblies, are also stored upstairs in this building.

The water tank supplies water to both of the buildings that make up the wagon company.  The old car, under the water tank frame, is only part of the junk that has been discarded in this area.

The foot print of this business measures 12x12 inches.  All the figures and wagons that you see in the photos come with the structure build-up.
