WELCOME TO UP-Side/Down Under Transit Models

We Specialize in importing the fine line of Saint Petersburg Tram Collection of Streetcar, Trackless Trolley and Bus Models.



ABOUT US:
Though our area of specific specialty is Baltimore Transit, we do import the entire fine line of the Saint Petersburg Tram Collection of Transit models.  Every order is a custom order, as YOU select the vehicle's paint scheme, fleet number, roll sign reading, block sign reading, and depending on the model, may also opt for extras such as hang signs and exterior advertising.  Read on to find out why the Saint Petersburg Tram Collection is the finest models available for the price.

ABOUT THE SAINT PETERSBURG LINE:
Crafted in O-Scale, the Saint Petersburg Line is the finest line of meticulously detailed models for the best price.  Each model order is hand crafted down to exacting detail by skilled Russian Craftsmen, then imported to us for your enjoyment.  No detail of these models is overlooked, as everything that you'd see on the full size version is found on the Saint Petersburg models, in precise scale.  Paint schemes are immaculately rendered, and most incredible, INTERIORS are fully detailed with accurate seating and stanchion arrangements, and even contain grooved flooring just like the originals.  Compare this detail to a Corgi model and you'll see that there really is no comparison for reality.  In addition, compare the price to the unpainted Brass models available on the market, and you'll agree that there is no better value available for the work that is involved in these precise models.

ABOUT ORDERING AND PRICING:
So how does one order a Saint Petersburg model from UP-Side/Down Under models, and how much will it cost.  All models range in price from $240 to $309, which tends to be less than other outlets for these models.  In addition, prices depend on the model, the number of models ordered, and the options on the vehicle.  For example, discounts are available on orders of three or more vehicles.  For a no-obligation quote on a model, feel free to contact JOHN ENGLEMAN at PCC7407@webtv.net
