Description
A steam excavator is an excavator powered by a steam engine. Steam excavators were built in the middle of the 19th century. They were the first powerful construction machines for earthmoving; It was through their use that many large construction projects of the industrialization era, such as the construction of canals, railway lines, open-cast mines and large industrial plants, were made possible. Steam excavators had their heyday at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th century. Our excavator is based on a model from the 1920s and was in use until the early 1970s.
Steam excavators were available in various designs, both in terms of the method of locomotion and the construction of the grave vessels: Due to the great weight, steam excavators were usually designed as rail vehicles (similar to a rail slewing crane) for movement. If the construction site was away from the fixed railway lines, which was usually the case, the tracks were laid “on the fly” especially for the excavator. Constructions on chains or wheels were less common.
The steam excavator or steam crane is an unpainted Finescale kit and comes complete with metal axles and buffers.
The highly detailed, unpainted model was produced using the 3D printing process and can be processed and painted with commercially available tools and colors (e.g. with Revell Email or Revell Aqua Color).
The model won the Golden Track 2021 in the TT / N / Z accessories category in the readers’ choice of the MODELLEISENBAHNER and MIBA magazines.
