Water towers were once vital and found across Britain’s railways, at most stations, sidings and locomotive sheds. Used to replenish water used by steam locomotives, these distinctive structures are also a crucial structure for any steam-era model railway.
Based on a Midland Railway stone design and featured along the famous Settle & Carlisle Railway, the new Hornby TT9005 water tower is a highly detailed and accurate replica of those constructed across the Midlands and north.
Moulded in resin, the water tower is fully decorated in a smart green and white colour scheme matching Hornby’s accompanying Settle & Carlisle buildings and is ready to plant on any TT:120 scale model railway. A resin shell forms a strong building, with finely rendered etched metal window frames, clear glazing and accurately detailed stonework, staircase and a painted water surface at the top of the tower.
Well suited to modelling any location across the Midland network, the new water tower is an ideal structure for any layout in TT:120 scale. Perfectly complementing Hornby’s growing range of TT:120 locomotives, rolling stock and Settle & Carlisle structures, this suits any era through to a preserved water tower in the present day.
