Powerhouses were filled with large machinery that converted steam into mechanical power and electricity. Adding this interior equipment helps establish the function of the Northern Light & Power building and gives viewers something to see beyond its exterior walls. The kit is particularly useful when the powerhouse is positioned near the front of a layout, beside an aisle, or in another location where its windows and interior remain visible.

Detail the Northern Light & Power Powerhouse

The Walthers Cornerstone Powerhouse Interior Kit includes several components for creating the appearance of a working electrical generating facility:

• Designed for the HO Scale Northern Light & Power Powerhouse Kit 933-3021
• Boiler-room interior walls
• Detailed turbine equipment
• Generator details
• Adds visible machinery behind the powerhouse windows
• Suitable for steam- and diesel-era power-generation scenes
• Parts molded in appropriate base colors
• Easy-to-build plastic detail kit
• Boiler-room walls measure 3-7/8 x 2-1/2 x 4-7/8" (9.8 x 6.3 x 12.3cm)
• Turbines measure 2-3/8 x 1-3/8 x 3/4" (6 x 3.4 x 1.9cm)
• Generator measures 1-1/2 x 1-1/8 x 7/8" (3.8 x 2.8 x 2.2cm)

The combination of boiler-room walls, turbines, and generators gives the interior the heavy mechanical appearance associated with a traditional power station. Individual components can be painted in contrasting industrial colors, while pipes, railings, workers, and electrical details can be added to develop the scene further. Careful placement of interior lighting can also make the machinery more visible through the powerhouse windows.

This product contains the interior-detail components only. The Walthers Cornerstone Northern Light & Power Powerhouse Kit 933-3021 is required to create the complete structure and is sold separately. Walthers also recommends the Overhead Traveling Crane Kit 933-3102 as an additional interior detail; the crane is not included with this kit.

Expand the Northern Light & Power Complex

The completed powerhouse interior fits naturally into a larger generating and distribution scene built with Walthers Cornerstone heavy-industry structures. The Northern Light & Power Powerhouse can also be paired with a substation and other facilities from the Walthers Cornerstone industrial structures collection to suggest a complete electrical utility complex.

Additional buildings for developing the surrounding railroad and industrial property can be found among Walthers Cornerstone trackside structures. Piping, utility equipment, and other smaller components can be found in Walthers Cornerstone accessories and details.
