Water Station for Tenders

This is a throwback to the steam locomotive era. I want to bring you to the next destination by filling the tender with coal and water like your LEGO Orient Express set. The iconic locomotive is ready to leave the station, however something is missing…what is it? The water station for its tender!

Nowadays, most train stations still have these water replenishment systems for steam engines along (usually) abandoned tracks, and as I am a big fan of old trains, I decided to create it. This small set could be a nice add to the LEGO station or LEGO train sets.

As you can see, the railway worker just had his coffee break, and he is now doing some maintenance with his red toolbox. There is a rat by the stairs, and it is wondering who is disturbing his daily routine. The long arm of the replenishment system is turnable, so it will be ready for the next approaching locomotive. Enjoy the ride!
