Complete your period fire brigade with the Preiser 30429 HO scale (1:87) horse-drawn coal tender. Modeled on the coal tenders that fed the steam pumpers of around 1900, this Era I piece supplied the fuel that kept boiler-powered fire equipment running. As a factory-finished, ready-made model, item 30429 delivers the crisp detail and authentic proportions that make Preiser accessories a favorite for historical layouts.
Hand-painted and ready to place, the coal tender needs no building or painting to look at home on your scenery. Pair it with the Preiser 30428 steam pumper and a horse team to recreate a full turn-of-the-century firefighting response, or station it outside a period firehouse. The 1:87 scale integrates cleanly with standard HO buildings, figures, and rolling stock.
