Here at Eaglewings Iron Craft we have industrial buildings for people to work at. We have downtown buildings with shops and other bussineses where people shop and have fun. But where do all these people live?

Eaglewings Housing Project

Here at Eaglewings Iron Craft we have industrial buildings for people to work at. We have downtown buildings with shops and other bussineses where people shop and have fun. But where do all these people live?

Someone has to build houses for all of the people that work and shop downtown, all the workers from all the industries that depend on the operation of the train to receive their supplies and to deliver their products. That's how we started our new project: Eaglewings House Models. So far we have 5 Houses and 2 Car Garages.


First, how about a house typical of Montpelier, Ohio, my home town. (Dan Hoag, (me), is the owner of Eaglewings Iron Craft and creator of all Eaglewings buildings). These are the plans for the first house> It is a two story house, like we mention before typical of Montpelier, Ohio back when I was just a little kid dreaming of railroads. The house when put together will measure 11-3/4" long by 12" wide by 14-1/2" tall. And it will look something like this

H - 1 Plans

House #1, two story

House #1


The second one is modeled after Dan's childhood home. This one is 16" long by 8-1/2" wide by 12-3/4" tall.

House #2 Plans

House #2, two story house.

Here are the rest of the models. Next one is model after Dan's current house in Arizona. The measurements for this house are: 14-1/2" Long x 12" wide x 10-1/4" tall.

The next is a model of Dan's neighbor across the street.

This one here is Dan's house before it was remodeled

Next, we have this model that was created after one of our town buildings, which is a gas station. A little time after we came up with the gas station a friend of ours mentioned that it would make a nice house; so we turned it into a nice little house.

Finally to compliment any of the models we built a single and a double garage.

That's all we have so far.

Again all of our buildings are created with the idea of offering the best of two worlds; first the durability of a steel building. How many times have you accidently stepped on your buildings or kids hit it with a ball; don't forget your dog or other animals that stray into your yard. All this can destroy hours and hours of work. With our buildings you don't have to worry about any of this.

Also our buildings are powder coated with a rust resistant primer. This will help the buildings survive the desert heat of Arizona or a harsh winter on the East coast and anything in between.

The second most important and to us the best part is, you can still be creative and detail a building wherever your imagination leads you. At the end you end up with unique building. The possibilities are endless. How about letting us create a replica of your existing home or the one from your childhood.

We would really like to read your opinions/suggestions or even questions that you might have about our buildings. Thank you for taking the time to read our story.
