About the Sculpture

Based of the water towers that provided the water to power steam locomotives, the Iron Horse Watchtower Fountain provides a unique water feature to the railroad theme park. One side of the tower features a large sign which reads, "Historic Haymarket" hinting at the historical context contained within the wooden water tower.

The watch tower at Iron horse park acts as a fountain, and this shows the pipe and basin that the water flows through.

The backside of the watchtower fountain at Iron Horse park, shows the barrel like wooden water container and the pipe sticking out of the side.
