Walthers Cornerstone 933-3096 HO Valley Growers Grain Elevator

The Walthers Cornerstone 933-3096 HO Scale Valley Growers Association Steel Grain Elevator models the rural grain elevator that was often the center, and in a few places the whole, of a farming community. Handling grain from local farms and selling it to distant markets, many of these older buildings still stand today as stand-alone facilities or as part of larger grain and feed mill complexes. Steel elevators came into use in the 1920s as steel sheets became affordable, and many wooden elevators were even sheathed in steel for fire resistance.

With colorful signs and period styling, the corrugated-metal elevator built from the 933-3096 suits any era from the 1920s to today. The kit includes the main elevator, plus a wood storage bin and a wooden office, all with realistic wall textures. Separate doors and windows add to the realism, along with colorful decals for several grain companies, making the 933-3096 a natural for any steam or diesel-era railroad that hauls grain.
