X2 (Pair of) Oil Pump Station "Nodding Donkey / Pump Jack" (N Gauge / Scale) 1:148 scale.
 
A fantastic backdrop for any model railway. A When first introduced, the counter-balance pumpjack’s ungainly appearance was mocked and ridiculed. But since the late 1800s, they’ve reliably delivered the oil that powered nations around the world.
The pumpjack is known as: nodding donkey, horse-head, thirsty bird, rocking horse, beam pump, grasshopper and other colourful names.
 
'These typically pump anywhere between 4-50 Litres in a single stroke depending on the size of the station. Some stations were small enough to fit in the back of a pickup truck, other larger designs weighed over 15ton'
 
This listing is for our UNPAINTED set, supplied in premium BLACK resin at a discounted price.
Black resin is advantageous for painting, as it eliminates the need to paint undercarriages, hulls, boilers, wheels, inside cabs or other hard to reach places. This is why we choose black resin for all our painted models too! The coverage for painting black is comparable to grey or white resin and can be easily achieved with 1-2 coats of acrylic model paints.
Perfect for the DIY model enthusiast!
