Just a note that I plan to bring my Tomix-based EasyTrolley "layout in a box" to the Saturday, October 20 meet in the Rutgers University Gymnasium in New...
They're a British style of tram. Nice looking model. They still run . . . or at least they did back in 2002. If you go to HK, they're fun to ride, but make...
Hi I joined this list as I'm interested in making Brill 55 model cars in N. Not traction, but I noticed the old Model Power single trucker has the right...
Ben- I don't have easy access to mine for measuring, but they are available on eBay quite often (there's at least one set on there right now). -alex- ... ...
We are in luck. I found my models and my trusty Flint Model Supply N scale at the same time. Window end to window end is 21 scale feet. That is, the 10 windows...

thanks bill. now i look at the plans for the South Australian Railways 55 cars, their ten windows come out at 25' long. The single-trucker may be too short. ...
I am considering the idea of modeling some G.E. 80-86 ton boxcabs like those used by the Canadian National and Butte Anaconda & Pacific. Can anyone recommend...
... Green Max makes a chassis in several lengths. Only one truck is powered, so the chassis can be cut and spliced to size. I just did a Google search, but...
From those pictures it looks like these boxcabs have fairly large trucks, comparable to diesel trucks in size (though with a different style of sideframes),...
The Green Max chassis is for conventional cast or fabricated "trucks".... the units that Jerry is wanting are older steam locomotive-like framed "trucks" that...
Green Max makes a couple of small B-B boxcab locos which would be very useful... one is a GE loco which resembles a bit the CN/BA&P locos; the other is a...
Nicholas- I am not familiar with the Green Max units you describe... could you provide a link??? Thanks, Charlie Vlk [Non-text portions of this message have...
Jerry- Roco used to make some electrics that had B-B trucks that resembled the GE units you reference, but they have been long gone from the marketplace. ...
Modemo box cabs? I've seen Modemo trams and interubans plus a few coaches but never any box cabs. Bill Robb Ooops, I meant Modemo!!! Modemo has the boxcabs......
AFAIK Modemo only makes streetcars and interurbans....never saw a boxcab from them. Kawaii or Arii (now MicroAce) had some hinky little units on an 0-6-0 or C...
So far the only things I have seen even close by MicroAce has been 2- 4+4-2, 2-6+6-2 and 4-6+6-4 chassis... does anyone know if the 2-6+6-2 or 4-6+6-4 chassis...
Garth and others I was pleasantly surprised to find that the TM02 electric cars had the right style of windows and doors for the Brill model 55 cars. My two...
The loco I have is M-A A2701, Ohmi Railway "ED14-1 type". The prototype is a GE boxcab which ran (runs?) on the Ohmi line near Osaka. The model is stretched...

Enter your vote today! A new poll has been created for the nscaletraction group: The New Haven EP5 has never been modeled by a mfr. in n-scale. Overland...

I don't think Undec/Unlettered would be a choice. Other than the obvious McGinnis NH scheme, the only other possibility would be the all black PC version. You...

Hi I am wondering if it is possible to move the pickups on the Tomytec TM03 chassis so that they sit on the inside of the wheels ? I'm also wondering if anyone...
