Ready for Service at Your Steel Mill
One of the biggest byproducts of steel production is slag or cinder, a
lava-like material produced in blast furnaces and converters. Handled as a
molten liquid in special ladles aboard purpose-built slag cars, its hauled
from the furnaces to dumping areas. When cool, it's reclaimed for use by
the construction industry. Big fleets of cars are needed to keep up, as a
typical furnace produces a half ton of slag for every ton of pig iron. This
upgraded model is typical of cars at operations large and small, and
features a separate ladle, details to simulate the dump mechanism, trucks
with RP-25 metal wheels and PROTO-Max(TM) knuckle couplers.
