Seems to me that, if you have some proto pictures, fabricating the trailer with 
sheets of .04" styrene and some selectively-purchased Grandt windows would not 
take all that much. Otherwise, I suppose you could cut down the Plasticville 
trailer to suit the dimensions you desire. Somewhere, in the dark recesses of 
my mind, I seem to remember some other trailers that BTS put out other than 
Junior's Shiner. Even though Bill monitors this list, an inquiry to him might 
be worth the trouble.

I really wish folks would sign their e-mails so we could get to know a majority 
of the names on this list.

  Subject: {S-Scale List} Are Plasticville's mobile homes 'S'-scaleable???


    
  I've heard that some Plasticville structures can easily be modified into 
S-scale structures and, with a little bit of work, produce a detailed model.

  I want to build the Valdez Yard Office, which is a trailer that is much more 
similar to Plasticville's mobile home then BTS's `Junior's Shiner." 

  I was wondering if any of you had seen or built this model and would know if 
it was worth attempting to convert this into an `S'-scale model.

  Also, to make this question moot, would any of you know of an S-scale mobile 
home that resembles a square office trailer (like the Plasticville model), as 
opposed to a pre-fabricated home (like BTS's model).
