The Quincy Station was designed from prototype drawings and an article in Model Railroader Magazine (April 1963) by Don Sims. The Engine House is one of several structures from the article written about a short line which was laid in 1910 near the back-country town of Quincy, California in Plumas County. The railroad was still in use at the time of the magazine printing and we feel all the various structures of the Quincy Railroad yard deserve to be reproduced in HO scale because of their functional adaptability. Our many thanks go to Mr. Len Thayer, General Superintendent of the Quincy Railroad Company and his crew who were very helpful and instrumental in obtaining dimensions and information pertaining to the building and structures of the Quincy yard.

The Quincy Station-Headquarters is the center of operations for the Quincy Railroad. Over the years the station was a busy center for commercial operations of the small town, as much of the freight was L.C.L. (less than carloads) there was considerable wagon and truck activity. The station and its addition were build over at least three different periods of time and are apparent from the different types of siding windows and doors used. It is crowded as close as possible to the tracks, and the car loading dock is cut away to clear the rolling stock. Gables and loading doors are build strictly for utility not for looks, you'll note that they do not line up from front to back of the building and that the porch posts are not an equal distance apart. The roof is covered with corrugated metal, weathered to different degrees, depending on age.
