Walthers Cornerstone HO Scale Diesel Service Facility Sanding Tower Kit - 5-7/32 x 25/32 x 7"

Walthers Cornerstone HO Scale Diesel Service Facility Sanding Tower Kit is an HO scale model railroad structure for adding a sanding tower to a diesel locomotive service facility, engine terminal, or railroad maintenance scene. Measuring 5-7/32 x 25/32 x 7" (13.2 x 2 x 17.9cm), this structure can be incorporated into a dedicated locomotive servicing area alongside other railroad facility buildings. Modelers planning additional scenes can browse the complete Walthers Cornerstone model railroad buildings and structures collection.

The Sanding Tower can help define the purpose of a diesel service area by adding a specialized structure alongside locomotive servicing tracks. Its narrow footprint and 7" height also make its supplied dimensions useful considerations when planning track spacing, nearby buildings, and the overall arrangement of an HO scale engine facility.

Add a Sanding Tower to an HO Scale Diesel Facility

Modelers can use the Diesel Service Facility Sanding Tower as an individual railroad structure or combine it with additional facilities to develop a larger locomotive terminal. Possible layout applications include:

• A diesel locomotive servicing area
• An engine terminal or maintenance facility
• A railroad yard with dedicated service tracks
• A larger diesel shop complex with supporting structures

For additional structures designed around locomotive-related scenes, browse Walthers Cornerstone engine and maintenance facilities. Modelers creating a larger shop or yard complex can also explore Walthers Cornerstone HO scale yard and shop facility buildings for more ways to develop the surrounding railroad property.

Build Out the Surrounding Railroad Scene

A sanding tower can become one component of a broader engine terminal rather than standing alone on the layout. Nearby railroad buildings and supporting facilities can help connect the servicing area with yard tracks and other operational parts of the railroad. Browse Walthers Cornerstone trackside structures for additional structures that can complement the surrounding scene.

Modelers planning railroad-owned buildings beyond the immediate diesel facility can also explore the broader Walthers Cornerstone railroad structures collection. Together, these categories provide options for extending an engine terminal into a more developed HO scale railroad environment.

Modelers finishing the Sanding Tower and surrounding diesel service facility can also browse Fusion Scale Hobbies' model railroad and hobby paint for painting, detailing, and weathering projects, along with model building glue and adhesives for additional structure-building and layout supplies.
