If you model the diesel era you'll also find this kit to be a centerpiece of your servicing facility since some of these classics are still used today.

Size was based on the number of engines coming and going in any 24-hour period, with the busiest terminals requiring full-circle roundhouses. This detailed 3-Stall Modern Roundhouse model includes three stalls on 10-degree centers to make the most of your available space like the prototype. And with a modular design, you can add as many stalls as your railroad requires using the Modern Roundhouse Add-On Stalls (933-3261, sold separately).

North American-Style Gas Storage Tank Looks Great in Pre-70s Scenes A fixture of city skylines through much of the 20th century Fits steam and diesel eras Can be built to model a full or empty tank Detailed trusses and steelwork Molded in black plastic Bring a signature structure to your layout with this Cornerstone structure, typical of the large tanks once used by city and industrial gas works. Long before electricity and natural gas were common, these facilities generated "coal gas" or "town gas" (a byproduct of coke ovens) to power street lamps, home appliances and machinery. These massive storage tanks were actually the last stop, used to store gas and maintain a constant pressure in the underground supply pipelines. Moveable sections rose to increase storage capacity when demand was less, and lowered as demand increased. With its intricate detail and easy construction, this model marks the first time an American-prototype gas storage tank is available. A must-have for period city scenes, one or two tanks can be used where space is limited to suggest a larger plant nearby.

For generations of travelers, Union Station was the magical gateway to and from the world. The Walthers Cornerstone Union Station will be the gateway to your layout! Here is where the journeys of the finest trains on the line started and ended. Where travelers rushed to make their connections. And thousands of commuters began and ended their workday. Where space was limited in larger towns and cities, two or more railroads would often combine their resources to build and operate major terminal stations. Monuments to the power and success of railroading, they also projected the spirit of the community they served and the promise of excellent service for anyone who traveled by train. Union Station is a fitting tribute to the grand terminals that served railroading for over 100 years. Whether your line runs heavyweights and steam, the flashy diesel streamliners of the 40s and 50s, or any of the colorful schemes and equipment of the Amtrak-era, Union Station is an ideal focal point for passenger operations. Designed to capture the look and feel of similar prototypes across America, it puts big detail in a small space without overwhelming your layout. If space is limited, it can be the focal point of operations for an entire layout. And best of all, this unique kit is based on an American prototype, so it looks right and fits perfectly without kitbashing. All the classic design elements are here, from the tall support columns to the nonworking clock on the roof. Each wall captures the look of cut-stone construction and is molded in color so painting is an option. Separate doors and windows, along with molded-in cut lines on the back of each wall simplify customizing. The large roof is neatly detailed with large skylights and numerous vents to make it more realistic. End-door canopies, realistic decals and many other details are also included. As shown Union Station measures: 16 x 6 x 5-1/2" 40 x 15 x 16.2cm Complete your Union Station passenger terminal with other Cornerstone railroad buildings.

* Authentic Concrete Design * Serves Three Tracks * Coal Delivery Shed * Loaded with Separate Details * Decal Signs Included As larger engines entered service, many railroads found their older coaling towers couldn't handle the increased demand. By the 1920s, railroads began contracting with outside firms to build new coaling towers. Concrete was the material of choice as it was easy to use, affordable, fireproof and weatherproof. Based on an Ogle design, the Modern Coaling Tower will be a focal point in any engine terminal. And towers like this were also built on the mainline to refuel engines on the road. The model features realistic "concrete" walls plus detailed chutes and mechanisms. Like the prototype, it can serve three tracks at once, making it an ideal choice for maximizing service in minimum space. The same sturdy construction that made these towers appealing to railroads also made them hard to get rid of! With its metal parts removed for scrap, the tower could still be standing in a contemporary scene, a reminder of how things used to be.

The Walthers Cornerstone Water Street Freight Terminal is an ideal addition to trackside scenes from the early 1900s into the 1970s and beyond. Freight terminals were essential to railroads, handling less-than-carload lot (lcl) shipments. Loads arrived in boxcars or reefers and were transferred to trucks for local delivery. Each railroad serving a community had its own terminal, usually near the main passenger station or classification yard. In the modern era these structures have been repurposed into everything from trucking terminals to restaurants. This detailed structure features a brick office building, freight house with loading docks to service freight cars and trucks, plus an assortment of crates, barrels and pallets. Fits any North American steam or diesel-era railroad from the early 1900s to the 1970s Includes loading dock and canopies Crates, barrels and pallets Easy-to-build plastic kit Molded in appropriate colors More Information Item # 933-3201 Brand Walthers Cornerstone  Scale N Type Building Kit Size 11 x 3-1/2" or 27.5 x 8.7cm Availability In-Stock/Restockable TCA Grading C-10 Mint - Brand New Instruction Sheet View/Download
