HO Scale (1:87.1) coal mine tipple for a three track facility. It is very much a work in progress as I don't have all of the parts meshed yet (or even designed for that matter)

The full design is for three tracks with 2" spacing and flat - although I might build up the landscape behind the tracks and under the back of the structure...

All of the parts may need rotated to slice. I ran them in ABS with 100% infill and a crazy slow layer 1 to help with adhesion. The floors will be changing as I get the locations of the chutes figured out. I may or may not do roofs, as I might just use sheet ABS for them. Still have quite a bit of parts to do yet, but I'm having so much fun I wanted to share!

Still have plans to add another tipple in the back with a conveyor to it - some holes to lay out yet in the one larger wall.

Walls are pretty thin at 1.4mm plus some rear supports and I'm printing at 0.2mm layer height.

There is no outer wall detail as I'm going to cover it in corr
