The footprint for this tower is 4 in x 4 in x 10 ½ in (h). The standard color is dark gray however other options are light gray, white and black. See our OnLine Store for more pictures and pricing.

There is about 6 inches of clearance to the bottom of the sanding chute. The tower is 3 inches by 4 ¾ inches at the base.

Modern Double track sand tower
This is a new design for the sand tower group. The design is the more standard version seen on most railroads. This tower can service locomotives from both sides on two tracks The main tower stands about 13 inches high. The design has changed from the prototype shown in the photos. There will be one sand pipe on the main tower instead of the two shown in the photo. The loading pipe will connect to the upper part of the sand tank rather then to the dust ventilator. The top hoses are meant for the older diesels with top loading sand chutes. The hoses on ground level are for the more standard diesel. Since this is a custom structure built to order the customer can make changes to dimensions to fit their layout.
