Busch 1472 HO Scale Mine Entrance / Adit Mouth Portal

The Busch 1472 mine entrance models a prototypical adit mouth, the surface opening of a mine tunnel used by miners or by visitors to a show mine. In mining terminology this portal, known as a 'Mundloch', is where a horizontal tunnel meets the daylight surface, typically set into a hillside, and item 1472 captures that rugged industrial character in HO scale (1:87).

Measuring approximately 2-13/16 x 1-1/4 in. (7.2 x 3.2 cm) and standing about 37 mm high, the 1472 portal tucks neatly into an embankment or rock face to become the focal point of a mining diorama or industrial layout. Set it against scenic rockwork and add figures and tramway track to create a convincing entrance to the underground workings.
