Walthers Cornerstone HO Scale Superior Paper Mill Kit - 933-3902

Walthers Cornerstone HO Scale Superior Paper Mill Kit - 933-3902 creates a large rail-served paper manufacturing facility for an HO scale industrial district. Designed as the main mill building in the Walthers Cornerstone Superior Paper complex, this structure represents the part of the operation where pulp is processed into paper, dried, wound into large rolls, cut, wrapped, stored, and prepared for shipment. The kit measures 20-3/4 x 11-3/4 x 8-3/4" (52.7 x 29.8 x 22.2cm). Browse the complete Walthers Cornerstone model railroad buildings and structures collection for additional HO scale structures.

Paper mills can generate substantial railroad traffic because both raw materials and finished products move through the facility. Pulpwood and woodchips can arrive in specialized cars, while chemicals and slurries can be delivered in tank cars. Finished paper products can then leave the mill in boxcars, giving the Superior Paper Mill several possibilities for freight operations and industrial switching.

Build an HO Scale Rail-Served Paper Mill

The Walthers Cornerstone Superior Paper Mill includes several features for developing a large industrial operation:

• Main mill building for the Walthers Cornerstone Superior Paper complex
• Suitable for layouts representing the 1950s and later
• Large industrial structure with rail and truck access
• Railcar door for railroad-served operations
• Brick construction on a concrete foundation
• Four truck-bay dock doors
• Rooftop vents
• Exterior tanks
• Decal signs included
• Parts molded in appropriate colors with clear plastic
• Can also be adapted to represent other large industrial facilities
• Catalog size of 20-3/4 x 11-3/4 x 8-3/4" (52.7 x 29.8 x 22.2cm)

The combination of rail and truck loading areas gives the Superior Paper Mill an important operational role on a model railroad. Freight cars can be spotted at the mill while trucks serve the loading bays, creating a facility where both railroad and highway transportation are part of the scene. Its substantial footprint also makes the structure useful as a major industry that visually anchors an industrial district.

Expand the Superior Paper Industrial Complex

The Superior Paper Mill fits naturally with Walthers Cornerstone industrial structures when developing a large rail-served manufacturing district. Walthers also designed additional Superior Paper structures, including the Kraft Mill and Recovery Boiler House, allowing the main paper mill to become part of a much larger industrial complex.

Additional buildings for expanding the surrounding manufacturing area can be found in Walthers Cornerstone factories and warehouses and Walthers Cornerstone heavy industry. Smaller components for loading areas, industrial yards, and surrounding properties can also be found in Walthers Cornerstone accessories and details.
