Essential to any waterfront scene, the Walthers Cornerstone HO Scale Pier Terminal is sure to be a focal point of activity on your layout. Municipal pier terminals are found at cargo piers throughout North America. These distinctive buildings are usually flanked by piers with railroad spurs and cranes which traverse their length. Traveling cranes unload cargo from ships onto the pier and stevedores wheel it inside through the large roll-up doors that run the length of the building. Inside the municipal pier terminal dockworkers transfer cargo to freight cars and trucks. On your layout the Pier Terminal makes a great destination for boxcars, reefers and other cars. Many ports have several similar pier terminals on adjacent piers, so adding more than one Pier Terminal to your waterfront district is easy by just changing the decals. With its detailed facade and rows of doors, the kit is also a prime candidate for kitbashing or enlarging by combining multiple kits. This kit comes molded in realistic colors and includes colorful decals.
The finished Pier Terminal as shown measures: 12 x 16 x 7-1/4" 30 x 40 x 18.1cm
