Posed with quench car and quench loco (both scratchbuilt. Yes, the loco runs using an old style Bachmann 44 tonner power truck |
The subject matter of this blog is the Steel Industry and Railroading. Most of the posts deal with my attempt to model an integrated steel mill in HO scale, however, there will also be posts on real railroading and the real steel industry as well as other industries, and for that matter, general topics, that interest me.

COKE OVENS - Part 9
A short update - in the last post on this thread I had a photo of the quench tower. Since then I've added some more bracing, platforms and rails, and piping. Plus some piping and caged ladders. This tower is based on the Thomas Coke prototype. The model has a base coat of paint, but still needs plenty of weathering. I didn't model the interior piping - yet - maybe in the future.
