Howard Zane builds an Incredible HO scale Coal Tower!

Howard designs coal towers and builds them in HO and O scales. I am the proud owner of the O scale version of this one. No two are totally alike and we can custom build to service single or multiple tracks. They are NOT inexpensive but take quite some time to build and are magnificent additions to any model railroad including O scale Hi Rail Scale modelers. If your interested in a custom build contact us at [e-mail] for more info

Incredible skills. Thanks for the post.

marvellous structure and a great well known great layout ! A steady camera on a tripod might have been better.

Many have asked if I would make these models into a kit. Folks, I'm pushing 86 and I really do not want to learn laser cutting and 3D printing as this technology is today, but I'm about yesterday. Also, mass production is completely the opposite to what I am.....and then some. Many thanks for the fine compliments. I am really a dinosaur as I love architecture from the late 19th century, I play music on the banjo from the 19th, I love flying propellor aircraft, cars from the 30's to 50's, and dress styles from the same era, but not suits. I do appreciate medical advances as new technologies saved my life several times, I can go on and on about this, but why.? Note: I do miss my rotary phone, but not my old Remingington typewriter, I do love "Word" on my computer.

Nicely done. Seeing this coal tower and the others you showed on the layout made me wish I had a layout so I can have a few coal towers on it. 😊🚂

You and Howard build some beautiful kits. Unfortunately out of my price range. Wish I could buy one of your kit builds. So nice!
Beautiful towers on your Pugsberg layout!

I’m wondering if the two of them might have some suggestions for more budget-friendly, but still high-quality options. Maybe some kits that can be customized-added to for a better effect

Thanks so much. I know he put a lot of time into this build .

[@alpugliesetrains9753]

None of these builds are kits. ALL are made 100% scratch not a single wall pre-cut

[@Red-mp3to]

@@alpugliesetrains9753 I'm sorry Cal. I thought some of the buildings shown on your videos was kits.

[@Red-mp3to]

@@jamescerone I think that's excellent idea. Is that a possibility?

[@spokes2388]

Awesome.
