Specific Item Information: 5 unique figures.
Road Name History:
What would any model railroad layout be without people? The conductors, engineers, passengers, passers-by and all the many things that people do in their daily lives are what make a model railroad come alive.

Model railroad figures are typically made from molded plastic, but are also available made from resin, pewter and even 3D-printing. They can come in either painted or undecorated form and are available in a wide variety of activities. Not just passengers and crew, but more obscure types of figures are available such as bee-keepers, skaters, sunbathers and fire-fighters.


Brand/Importer Information:
Vollmer GmbH & Co.KG or Vollmer is a German manufacturer of model buildings and accessories for use with model railroads. The Vollmer Company was founded in 1946 by Wolfram K. Vollmer (1924–2010) and initially manufactured metal collar buttons. The German currency reform of June 1948 and subsequent economic growth led to a demand for plastic collar buttons and the company introduced plastic injection technology. Vollmer also began to develop plastic model railway accessories and presented a patented catenary system for HO scale model toy trains at the 1949 Nuremberg Toy Fair. By 1954, the company had begun production of HO-scale model houses. In the 1970s Vollmer had a large enterprise that included American models as well as European models.

Vollmer GmbH was based in Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen and produced an extensive range of houses, model railway and industrial buildings, vehicles, catenary and general accessories in G, H0, TT, N and Z scales.

In 2014, Susanne Vollmer, director of the company, announced that the company will stop production and shut down business during late 2014. Soon afterwards, in the Summer of 2014, Vollmer and Viessmann announced that Viessmann would acquire the licenses for the brand Vollmer and that from September 2014 onward. the Vollmer products will again be available.
