HO Scale Sooty's Coal Tipple, Lighted, Building Accessory Train, Limited Edition
HO Scale Sooty's Coal Tipple, Lighted, Building Accessory Train, Limited Edition
The United States became an industrial giant for two reasons: American ingenuity and vast quantities of inexpensive coal for power. Sooty’s Coal salutes the mineral that heated homes, fired the electric grid, burned in the steel plants of Pittsburgh, propelled battleships and ocean liners, and moved several generations of steam locomotives! Sooty’s Coal Tipple now lets you add the coal industry to your railroad.
The basics: This is a fully assembled and decorated structure with a compact 5" by 4-5/8" footprint and a height of x 6-1/2" inches. The tipple structure is supported by eight concrete supports.
There is brilliant illumination beneath the structure and safety lighting on the staircase. Up top are red warning lights for low-flying aircrafts.
Why you need this: While King Coal’s fortunes are not what they were, plenty of car loads still feed power plants and major industrial complexes. Even today, coal can be seen as a boutique fuel for coal-burning stoves at second homes or hunting lodges.
The tipple packs in the detail, starting at the ground level. The concrete support columns have brick fascia. Here and there, well-developed moss can be spotted growing around the bricks.
There is an enclosed conveyor for moving the coal up from the mine to the tipple for car coaling. There is ample room beneath the structure for short or long coal hoppers. The coal loading area will accommodate all HO gauge hopper cars.
Nevertheless, no matter how careful the loading, sometimes there is a mess. The new guy on the job, a hard hat wearing staff member, has a shovel in his hand. You’ll find a neatly stacked pile of coal that fell from the hopper.
If your railroad is a steam-era pike, Sooty’s tipple would make a good steam locomotive coaling tower for a roundhouse area!
Near the tracks is a two-level wooden staircase with safety-vest wearing employees on the second and third levels. Jack can be spotted near his dog house, situated beneath the staircase. It even has his name painted on it.
The Sooty’s Coal Tipple is right at home on a steam-powered layout or in a modern setting with diesels and multiple car unit trains.
