It's the overflow pipe. It needs to run to a drain of some sort. The draining water/steam (is under pressure) would be very dangerous.

I had intended on doing some modeling last night, but ended up running trains instead. Had a good time for over an hour just switching cars around. Took a photo to share. The area in the photo is only 16 inches wide.

Good way to spend an evening! Modeling should be just for fun anyway. The scene is beautiful!

I love this scene too, Roland. Easy to understand how one can spend hours just running trains in such a nice environment.

Hi. I have been working on the backwoods water tank by Banta. It is being built pretty much out of the box with the exception of a peaked roof instead of flat.

Great job on the watertank. Really like the peak roof.

Roland,
Nice build. I like the color of the wood and the bands.
