GN Ice House

Railroads needed to supply ice for drinking purposes in depots, offices, and passenger cars and for perishable freight service. Special insulated houses were built to store the ice during winter so it would be available all year long. This Great Northern Ice House was designed in 1892.

This kit consists of laser-cut basswood, cardstock, and plywood. The tabbed construction and peel-and-stick three-tab shingles ease assembly. The overall footprint is approximately 27’ x 51’.
