Subscribe to our email newsletter to stay informed on ESM products! The monthly publication will include coverage of various items and series both already on the market and in development.

Our Made in America Series has launched with the Keyser Valley Caboose kit in two variations! The as-built variation of the kit with the angled rain-drips over the windows is sold out and discontinued, but the modernized variation with the etched stainless steel vandal screens remains available — an absolute must-have for Erie Lackawanna and Conrail modelers! The craftsman kits will be available online only through the ESM website. See further details on this new product line by clicking on the Products section of the pulldown menu.

A new release of our Magor/PC&F class XIH boxcar will be appearing late this spring! Click on the Products section of the pulldown menu to see the new roads and schemes that will be released!

Our newest tooled model is the Pennsylvania class X58 boxcar - the first ready-to-run model of this popular prototype in any scale! Our model features three distinct body variations and other detail variations so that any version of the prototype from any era can be represented on the model!

The 1940s Art-Deco White Tower Restaurant model is built via rapid-prototype technology and features intricate detailing including a fully-rendered interior! three variations - a stand-alone building with a footprint of 1½ x ¾ inches; the “right-hand” integrated version designed to fit inside the front-right corner of a larger structure; and the “left-hand” integrated version designed to fit inside the front-left corner of a larger structure! These models are made in batches toward the end of the month based on pre-orders. Invoices will be sent once the buildings are ready to ship! Extra buildings from a made-to-order batch will be available for purchase as a stock item. Pre-orders are accepted for the current batch up to the last Friday of the month and are ready to ship normally within two to three weeks. Please note that anyone who fails to pay an invoice no longer is elegible to purchase any ESM made-to-order items.

A small camera icon next to the ESM stock number indicates a larger photo has been added. Eventually there will be a photo of every release that has been offered to date, so that all variations are documented. Click on the camera icon to view.

Our website features photographs of every ESM product released from our first offering in 1987 forward, as well as a description and brief history of each item including reporting marks, date of last service, date of the reference photograph if known, release date of the model, list price and availability. We update our site regularly as new products are introduced and current products are discontinued.

Subsequent releases of an item will have various printing detail differences than previous releases, making them unique in more than just having a different set of reporting marks. When the release of an item differs from the general photograph on an item page, a camera icon will be present to allow viewing of the specific item release.

Our products are grouped by the categories in the menu above. Hover the mouse pointer over the Products option to see a dropdown menu of the available product lines, and click on the product line desired. The general page of the Product Line will appear. Hover over the Product Line link to see a dropdown menu of the items in that product line. Our Specialty Items product lines are arranged in similar fashion, and contain our non-prototypical commemorative releases as well as our high-end Sovereign Modeler Series™ line of products. The In Stock page shows all available items and notes those that are in limited quantity.
