SMALL BOILER HOUSE
(Model by Chick Sweeney -- Thank you, Chick, for the fine job!)
As mentioned on our Home Page, this structure is the same small addition that's included with our O-scale Lemmon Hotel kit, produced separately because of popular demand. The prototype was once located in Mancos, Colorado, and was added to the side of the hotel to apparently house a boiler, probably for heating the rooms. It's a small, versatile building with a footprint of only 2½ inches deep by 3 inches wide (64 mm by 76 mm). The sides are milled clapboard, the windows and doors (with that fancy crown molding) are peel-and-stick plywood, and the roof is our special, textured, peel-and-stick shake shingles.
To add even more interest, the kit includes the coal bin, front bench, and five Berkshire Valley castings (coal scoop, coal bucket with handle, water pail, small cinder shovel, and 30-gallon trash can with trash). (Yes, the 2-piece smokestack is also included.)
This is an easy kit to assemble (it does require painting, however), and, at $25, is our least expensive. (Please remember that we add $5 for shipping if your order totals less than $50. You may want to check out our other kits or stock up on shingles!)
