The Walthers Cornerstone HO Scale Sanding Towers and Drying House kit is essential for adding realism to steam and diesel-era locomotive servicing scenes. Every railroad had its own ideas about sand house construction, so most were built to meet local conditions and seldom followed standard plans. Since diesels also needed sand, these structures remained in service years after the last steamer had been retired. This model fits any busy terminal and includes a unique brick drying house, a large open storage bin, and piping. Both steam and a larger modern-era sanding tower are included to fit your modeling era. The Sanding Towers and Drying House kit is one of a wide variety of Cornerstone HO Scale railroad buildings. Brick drying house Detailed wooden storage bin Early and late-style towers included Realistic piping Great for steam or diesel-era layouts Decal signs included Easy-to-build plastic kit As shown, the Sanding Towers and Drying House kit components measure: Early Sanding Tower: 1-7/8 x 7/8 x 2-7/8" or 4.8 x 2.2 x 7.3cm Late Sanding Tower: 3-1/2 x 3/4 x 4-7/32" or 8.9 x 1.9 x 10.7cm Drying House: 1-11/16 x 1-13/16" or 4.3 x 4.6cm Storage Bin: 1-11/16 x 3-1/2" or 4.3 x 8.9cm

Add gritty, real-world detail to your HO scale layout with the Lineside Details LD-3949 — a 2-pack of weathered CLOSE CLEARANCE warning signs. These factory-distressed signs replicate the faded, rust-stained look of older railroad safety signage found along tunnel approaches, low-clearance platforms, bridge abutments, and tight industrial sidings. Drop them in for instant operational realism. About the Signs Real railroads post "Close Clearance" signs anywhere the loading gauge gets tight — places where a crew member riding a freight car footboard would lose limbs if they leaned out. Lineside Details captures the worn, in-service look perfectly: subtle paint fade, rust streaks where bolts and edges have aged, and a hand-painted feel that says "this sign has been here a while." Each pack includes 2 pre-assembled signs on realistic metal posts. Key Features 2 weathered CLOSE CLEARANCE sign assemblies per pack Authentic faded paint, rust effects, and in-service distressing Pre-assembled on realistic metal post — ready to plant Perfect for tunnel approaches, platforms, yard tracks, industrial sidings, and bridge abutments Adds gritty operational realism to mid-century and modern-era layouts Manufactured by Lineside Details, LLC Specifications Brand Lineside Details Item Number LD-3949 Scale HO (1:87) Quantity 2 sign assemblies per pack Type Weathered CLOSE CLEARANCE warning sign Use Tunnels, platforms, yards, bridge approaches, industrial sidings Era Steam through modern (any era) Age 14+ (contains small parts) FAQ What does a "Close Clearance" sign warn about?It warns railroad crew that the loading gauge ahead is too narrow for a crew member to safely ride the side of a car — common at tunnel entrances, narrow platforms, between adjacent tracks in yards, and at bridge abutments. Standard FRA-required safety signage. Are these already weathered?Yes — these are factory-weathered for an aged, in-service look. No additional weathering needed. If you want a freshly-painted version, see our other Lineside Details sign packs. Are they pre-assembled?Yes — each sign is mounted on a metal post and ready to plant in your scenery. Drill a hole and drop them in. What era do these fit?Any era — these signs have been a standard safety fixture for a century. Works equally well for steam, transition, diesel, and modern layouts.
