Built in 1993 by Richard E. Bendever

About this model

This diorama began its life as a Pola plastic kit (Galvanizing Works). Frankly, I got sick and tired of people telling me that they couldn't build craftsman kits like I could. I kept explaining to them that they didn't need to build craftsman kits to have really good models. So, in order to prove a point, I built Wenrich's Manufactory.

J.W. Wenrich's was awarded 3rd Place at the NMRA National Convention in Atlanta, Georgia in the Summer of 1995. The only reason Wenrich's took Third is because it had to compete with my Hooker's Point Lighthouse. In my haste to get to the Convention, I forgot to cover the track so that this diorama would compete in the Off-Line category instead of On-Line. Wenrich's was awarded 116 points, seven points higher than the winner of the Off-Line diorama. Either way, it was extremely fun proving my point!

This model has many of my own personal touches. I have copper roofing, Hot Glue castings, Egg Shell castings, scratch built trees, and much more. This model is incredibly good, even if it is a plastic model. This diorama will get up-sized to 1:64th scale in the Summer 2006 unless we find it a good home.

Yes, even the car in the front of the image is a Hot Glue casting, as are all the rest of the roof details. It's a lot of fun taking off the cover of this case and wiggling the chimney's with my finger as the people stare in amazement!
