This kit is of what could be considered the typical Western Canadian grain elevator as they existed from the late 1800's on. Over the years many were modified and changed to handle the ever increasing variety of grains grown, and every one took on different characteristics. This model was developed from photos, drawings and a number of books on the subject and is as close to the "Prairie Skyscraper" as you can get. This kit includes full colour logo decals of 5 of the most common grain handlers, made for us by Microscale. The footprint is about 8" square.
