Payette Valley Models

What We Do …

Payette Valley Models creates craftsman HO-scale model railroad kits which combine history and fine scale modelling.

Primarily concentrating on structures and equipment from the 1875-1915 era, the prototypes we use may exist in many regions of the country, but mostly the inter-mountain west. We tend to stay away from Colorado – not because we dislike Colorado but because the railroads and industries between Colorado and California tend to be under-represented.
