Woodland’s Utility System and Substation

HO Scale O Scale N scaleWoodland’s Utility System provides a prewired collection of utility poles that you pull from the package and place on your layout, eliminating tedious time spent threading power lines across and through poles.

Woodland offers double-crossbar poles designed to reproduce communication lines (for use along a railroad right of way) and single-crossbar poles for residential and commercial needs following your roads through your towns and cities.
The poles are available in HO, N, and O in the two mentioned styles. Woodland offers a Transformer Connection Set for use between poles and the separately sold Substation release.

Woodland’s Substation (available in HO, N, and O scale) includes everything necessary to create a power grid relay location for your model railroad. The hand-painted and detailed structures include insulators, cables, and other fine details. The release comes with a control building and signage (fencing shown below is available separately from Woodland). Visit the company’s website to see more about these items.
