Recently I came across a Bachmann Plus Coal Tower.
I was very surprised with the amount of detail contained in this plastic kit.
In addition to the coal tower, there is a sand building complete with dispensing container and the big surprise there is a coal bin which goes under one of the sets of tracks. This comes complete with a bucket feeding the tower. Certainly adds a nice detail touch.
Too bad this tower is no longer in production, I would love to obtain another for the opposite rail yard on my layout. Having an exact duplicate would give it that standard railroad look that came with the standard design of a railroad's buildings.
You might find one on ebay.
