Skoal! Prost! Salut! No matter how you say 'cheers', the stunning Walthers Cornerstone HO Scale Milwaukee Beer and Ale Brewery building will be the highlight of your railroad. Many breweries began as small, local suppliers and grew into large - scale operations thanks to the railroads. In every era, these facilities need a wide variety of freight cars. Boxcars and hoppers bring in grains, malt, empty barrels, bottles, caps, or cans. Hoppers haul coal, and some may leave with broken glass. Gondolas carry scrap aluminum. Tank cars deliver natural gas or corn syrup, and others transport bulk beer. Insulated boxcars and reefers bring in hops and take the finished products to market. The Milwaukee Beer and Ale building adds lots of operational fun to your current railroad. If space is tight, it can be the main industry in a small switching layout. Its vintage brick architecture, with separately molded ornate trim, various - sized windows and doors, looks great in any era. It's ideal as the main building in a vintage scene or an older part of a modern complex. This easy - to - build plastic kit measures 12 - 3/8 x 10 x 12' (31.4 x 25.4 x 30.5cm). It features vintage brick architecture, is perfect for early - 1900s to present industrial scenes, is molded in appropriate colors, comes with decal signs, and is an easy - to - build plastic kit.
