Description: Up for auction is a like-new, partially-assembled, HO Walthers Cornerstone Series #933-3018 Golden Valley Canning Co. kit. The main walls of this cannery have been assembled and painted. All of the brick portion have been painted in a Red Brick color with mortar giving the structure a used, but well-maintained look. The concrete structural columns have been neatly painted with Weathered Concrete. From what I can tell, all of the rest of the parts for the kit are still in the box including the boiler house. In fact most of the parts are still attached to their original molding sprues!! This appears to be a fairly large structure although it does not have that big of a footprint on the layout: 8" x 10.5" plus the 3" by 4.75" boiler house. The rest of the building could be assembled without painting as Walthers has molded the other parts in appropriate colors. Some further weathering could result in a real eye-catching structure. The kit includes lots of add-on details such as the fire escape, water tower, loading docks, ladder, downspouts, piping, etc.. The figures and vehicles shown on the front of Walthers box are not included There is a large set of full-color decals which can really add life. Appropriate for layouts from latter1800s on. canneries like this one can be found in cities and towns all across the country. A large Del Monte Cannery in Rochelle, IL next to the UP/BNSF crossing and across from the world-famous Rochelle Railroad Park was just recently torn down. This cannery can be a great source of revenue for your model railroad: several boxcars for new tin cans as well as finished cases of canned goods are a common sight. These plants use lots of boiling water and steam so the coal-fired boiler house will need a coal hopper or two. Take a good look. What you see is what you get! I do combine shipping on multiple purchases IF you contact me before you pay.
