Product information "H0 water crane with articulated boom, 2 pieces"

Kit. In the original, water cranes with articulated booms were often found on platforms at exit tracks. The reason for such a location was obvious: If the steam locomotive of a train that had arrived had to add water, the locomotive did not always come to a stop exactly at a water crane. Re-tightening or reversing would have posed increased danger for passengers getting on and off. The articulated boom provided a certain length compensation in order to bring the nozzle closer to the filling opening of the water tank in the locomotive tender without the train having to start. This type of water crane was often part of the inventory of a railway depot. The models also come with an additional base with stairs to compensate for the height difference between tracks with bedding and model tracks.
