Hunt'sche Large Coaling Facility!! Fully Assembled!!!
 In
the early 1900's the American manufacturer C.W.Hunt based in New York,
built large coaling facilities for both American and European Railroads.
Hunt'sche coaling facilities were built in Munich Germany for the Bavarian
State Railroads, Saarbrücken Germany for the Württemberg State
Railroads, Vienna Austria for the Royal Austrian Railroads and Philadelphia
USA for the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad. C.W. Hunt also built these
coaling facilities for other US railroads, which we are currently researching.
In Europe the facilities stayed in Operation until 1975. These large coaling
facilities were designed to supply 4 large steam locomotives with coal
at the same time. With their Hugh coalbunkers they were able to supply
coal to hundreds of steam locomotives every day. Micro-Metakit's model
is exquisite; the superstructure is made compleatly of brass and new silver.
The large coalbunker is made out of Magnesium. The facility is completely
assembled and painted; it is also illuminated with outer and inner lights.
Two versions are available, an HO 2-Rail DC version and an HO 3-Rail AC
version for Marklin operators. The Coaling Facility is one of the best
models we have ever seen. It is also the first of a series of structures,
which will be produced by Micro-Metakit. Micro-Metakit will produce the
Munich turntable, roundhouse and other structures for modelers who want
to replicate the yards in Munich Germany, during the glorious days of
steam. Quantities
are extremely limited so act fast. |
