Welcome to the Steam Era Classics Structure Page!

The superstructure for this tower is made from the same wood used for our bridges and decking so offers a solid, sturdy foundation. There are now two versions of this water tower.

Made from the same wood as all our bridges these loading docks are extremely sturdy and durable. The universal loading dock measures 14 inches long with a 6 inch ramp for a total of 20 inches. The dock is 3 inches wide so can also be used as a universal dock between two tracks. The flat car loading dock measures approximately 4 inches with a 6 inch ramp for a total of 10 inches. This dock can be placed at the end of a line where a flat car can be backed up to it for loading.
