A Short History In 1992 I started New England G-Scale Trains to sell G-Scale cars (made by USA Trains) with custom art work that I had designed or licensed. I did this for about 4 years and had some success - but not as much as I had hoped for. Bollinger Edgerly Scale Trains was formed in the summer of 1996. For the first two years we concentrated on ballasts and had a pretty good selection ...but then we lost two of our suppliers. Considering that finding a supplier for quality scale ballast was difficult, and shipping was high on ballast, we decided to stop carrying ballast for the time being. Besides ballast, we also had a small selection of laser cut craftsman kits available. In 1998 I started construction on my own house (1:1 scale) and that took up most of my time. Also, my partner (David Edgerly) lost interest and decided to persue other avenues of income. As I started unpacking some of my boxes, in 2001, I came across a few of the old kits and remembered how much I enjoyed creating them and building them. So... I am continuing this business on my own with just kits for now. I hope you enjoy them as much I do. I the fall of 2006 we moved to Belmont, New Hampshire, in part, to gain a larger work space. My wife is now working with me - what a lucky guy I am. It was even her idea. -Brian Bollinger Timeline 1992 New England G-Scale Trains. 1996 Bollinger Edgerly Scale Trains (B.E.S.T.) was formed. 2001 Lakeside Scale Models HO kits were incorporated to the BEST product line. 2004 Precision Lasercraft (equipment and inventory) was purchased. 2005 Colonial Custom Castings (equipment and inventory) was purchased.
