Old Wood Structure Kits, (also other materials)

Sat, 2021-03-27 07:10 — railandsail

I was rummaging around some of my inventory of collected 'stuff' a few days ago, and came upon a few old wood kits that probably would not get many modern day modelers very excited. But they just might appeal to some older, time-period guys. It might be neat to see a few of these odd ball kits from yesteryear.

And it might be neat to find a modeler who would appreciate getting them free, rather than languishing unused in another person's 'collected stuff'? Might be fun to find a good home for some of these.

Photo Etching ladders: metal thickness experiences?

I'm researching the creation of some N&W CPL signals in HO scale. I looked at many companies and it seems that not one of them does actual N&W CPL signals nor PRR CPL signals of which the N&W ones are derivatives of, or if they do they won't have the dual mast version on a single supported post platform I'd need.

Almost 40” long.

Not cheap but the deck opens up and a lot of detail.

Question about n-scale Atlas C55 Turnouts, Controls, and Ballasting

Sun, 2021-03-21 00:20 — trainpixsnet

Okay folks, I have been pouring over the Internet and really haven't found all the answers to my questions regarding using Atlas N-Scale Code 55 turnouts with either a Tortoise or Walthers' Servo or any other under-the-table-with-a-throw-wire type device.

First off I apologize if there is a duplicate post somewhere but I sure haven't found it.
