Tall Old Model Railroad Watertower toy row boat --wooden egg puzzle I believeI think this old model train water tower makes a pretty great tabletop sculpture, and appears to have creatively constructed from a mix of found parts, welded and screwed together to form the whole. It looks to me like the red top is cast steell, the body copper, the legs brass, and the black painted base galvanized aluminum. 10 7 8" tall x 4 1 16" wide and deep. In very good condition, super solid and sturdy.
