up the cross bracing. The footprint is 18 scale feet wide by 32
scale feet deep by 44 scale feet high. The transfer machine is
a Kibri screener unit from their gravel kit. Pikestuff siding and
building ends are used for the upper sides. Plastruct ladders
and cages are used to get between decks.
The coal pile stacker is made from 1½” dia. PVC pipe. Holes
were cut into the pipe to represent coal exit points. All new
conveyors are the Walthers 933-3170 and 933-3149 kits. These
kits are a very good example of heavy-duty conveyors used in
most industries.
In the January MRH, I'll describe about how I built the unique
traveling Schlesser loader. See
for more.
