Port Facility - Office Building

A cargo pier cannot exist without some administration. This model offers perfect end modules for a port facility with HMVs Quayside Warehouse. The office buildings can be placed to the right and left of the warehouses or alternatively used in many other ways.

Office buildings like these can still be found in Hamburg’s harbor. Today these buildings are very popular when converted into an apartment building. In the past here the formalities were handled while in the warehouses next to the office building barrels and boxes were loaded on and off trucks, wagons and ships. Workers often had to come by barges to their workplace because in many cases the waterway was faster and shorter than overland. At a pier like this a little wharf shouldn’t be missing. The traffic of the quayside railway and the tightness of the place often made a turning platform necessary. Wagon by wagon was turned here and moved to the next pier.

The model highlights:

• accurate graphics
• including harbour barge
• including two office buildings
• turning platform
