Faller 130026 H0 Blast furnace with cast house

For our anniversary model 2026 we make industrial history come alive! In this regard, we have oriented ourselves to the Meiderich Hüttenwerk in Duisburg, founded by August Thyssen at the beginning of 20. Century. For decades, crude iron was produced there – until 1985 the last of five blast furnaces went out. The model imitates the legendary blast furnace 2 of the factory and lets the montan industry enter the world of the model. A technically and historically fascinating topic, which deliberately extends beyond our regular innovations to our 80-year anniversary. At the same time, we are breaking the arc of another historic milestone: 75 years of Montanunion. The European Coal and Steel Community, the nucleus of today's EU, once opened duty-free access to coal and steel – and thus open ways to economic unification and lasting peace in Europe. A model with history, Vision and weight – for collectors, history and technology enthusiasts and for anyone looking for a challenge!

The model includes the furnace with surrounding frame, the inclined hoist including the wind house, a dust collector, the trouser tube with associated pipes, a gas torch, the casting hall with portal crane as well as a small day bunker.
