I'm partial to my MTH water tower and what amazes me is how much people enjoy lowering the spout, it's just a riot and I don't know why.

I did have to put the 'ol hometown name on it


Here's my Camelback loading up for a trip


It really is a fun accessory and easy to wire.

steel rails.......... Welcome to the Forum.
I, also, think that it all depends on what you want.
And how much you want to spend !!
Good luck.

I would like to purchase a water tower. I am leaning towards the recently produced Lionel #38 water tower, but before I buy I would like sound advice on which to choose.
