Oil has fueled American industry since James Buchanan was president! Oil for lamps, petroleum for cars, fuel for ships and trains, lubricants for machinery, and the source material for countless products from plastics to man-made fabrics. Rest assured that companies like Texaco® have been right there securing the energy we needed through war and peace!
The Texaco® beam pump makes the magic happen by getting the oil out of the ground and on the way to the refinery!
The basics: This is a fully decorated and assembled accessory. Marked for Texaco®, this design reflects a familiar, classic component of the energy industry - the beam pump.
The Texaco® beam pump might be our most innovative use of a compact space so far. The footprint measures a modest 8 x 3-5/8 inches.
The display features a motorized beam pump with a rotating crank and counter balance weight that begins the upward and downward syncopation of the walking beam that forces the horse head down into the well, then on the upward stroke, it lifts the oil up and out, normally to a pipeline or line to a storage tank.
The accessory's function requires a 4.5-volt power supply. These may be connected over the table through a plug on the rear of the shack, or from below with a drop-down plug beneath the building.
Why you need this: Tank cars are a staple of many O gauge layouts and often oil storage yards, so why not model the machinery that pumps the oil out and starts it on the journey to the refinery?
Placement is easy, and it will be right at home in a fuel tank farm or in the middle of a field!
The model has a weathered equipment shack. The pump mechanism rests next to it on a concrete pad.
Two nearby workers are engaged in a conversation, while Jack acts as chief safety dog, keeping an eye on efficient equipment operation.
In action, the mechanism has a steady gear rotation which causes an up and down motion, with a wire line plunging down into the well head. This is a working accessory that will add movement sure to catch the eye.
