Walthers Cornerstone HO Scale Peterson Tool Specialties Kit - 933-3091 creates a large modern manufacturing and distribution facility for an HO scale industrial district. Typical of industrial buildings constructed from the 1960s to the present, Peterson Tool Specialties combines simulated steel and concrete construction with loading areas designed for both railroad and truck traffic. The finished structure measures 19-1/8 x 11-7/8 x 3-7/8" (47.8 x 29.7 x 9.7cm). Browse the complete Walthers Cornerstone model railroad buildings and structures collection for additional HO scale structures.

Peterson Tool Specialties can represent a variety of modern manufacturing operations, giving modelers flexibility when planning a rail-served industrial customer. Large railcar loading doors allow freight cars to enter the building, while separate truck-loading areas represent the highway side of the operation. The combination creates opportunities to model the movement of materials and finished products between railroad cars, trucks, and the manufacturing plant.

Build an HO Scale Rail-Served Manufacturing Plant

The Walthers Cornerstone Peterson Tool Specialties Kit includes several features for developing a modern industrial operation:

• Typical of industrial buildings constructed from the 1960s to the present
• Simulated steel and concrete construction
• Large railcar loading doors
• Ground-level truck freight doors with a sloped access ramp
• Raised loading dock doors at trailer-floor height
• Separate office area at the front of the building
• Colorful printed signs for completing the facility
• Modular design that allows multiple kits to be combined into a larger structure

The railcar doors give Peterson Tool Specialties a direct connection to railroad operations and can create a destination for freight switching within an industrial district. The large openings can also be adapted for loads-in, empties-out arrangements or used where a track passes through the structure toward a backdrop. Its modular construction provides additional flexibility for modelers who want to expand the plant beyond the standard building footprint.

Expand Your Walthers Cornerstone Industrial District

Peterson Tool Specialties fits naturally with Walthers Cornerstone industrial structures when building a larger rail-served manufacturing district.
