Steel mill building needed

My son and I are building a steel mill on our HO layout. We are looking for the Walthers Electric Furnace building #933-3056 that was discountinued several years ago. Does anyone have one that they would like to sell or know of a hobby shop that has one? We are trying to build a BOF (Basic Oxygen Furnace). Any other suggestions if we can't find the 3056??

Peter,
Plastruct
:

has a Steel Mill Fakefront, their kit 30 for $ 44.95, and they also have kit 40 for steel mill bottle cars for $ 20.95. And you might check
Jay Cohen Model Trains

to see if they have it in their inventory of "fallen flag" kits.

P.S. Just now saw your double post on the

forum, which I had not read when I posted this.

Or buy Evergreen metal siding material and make one yourself. Its basically a big corrugated metal box.
