O.K. let's see what happens. These are pictures that he has provided me with for your viewing. If you have any questions, I have no idea how he did this work.

I believe that he has built at least 7 cars. He must work on this stuff day and night. I believe that he is presently working on an engine.

Look at those 88's - Who made those ?

Anybody knowns any commercially available railroad bridge matching K&C scale?

I plan to build a diorama similar to K&C (sold to Louis Balbado) with DAK troops crossing a railroad bridge.

Hi Ober, do you have a pic of any railroads in Afirca?

good question dude. The only one is Gordon's imaginative work in Louis' museum.

Did anyone ever figure out how to make 1/30 scale trains yet?

Some washing-up liquid bottles and double sided sticky tape (have to be a BBC Blue Peter fan to understand that one)

There are no 1/30 trains I could find, the closest I've seen is 1/32 Marklin BR52's that cost a few thousand dollars, or 1/35 kits for BR52's from CMK or Trumpter which are about $150 (and only 710 pieces to put together). There are many other war trains but I've only been looking at BR52's so maybe there are other models out there

A company called KM from Germany Makes 1/32 scale trains,, but then again thats the problem, the scale issue! It would be nice if a company came out and did quality 1/32 scale figures, then life would be easier,, Imagine, all those FOV tanks you could put on flat cars!!!

Yeah but 1/30 scale would be better for king & country.

 

[redhugh]

Generally think you can just about get away with 1/32 but definetly not 1/35.
In the case of trains I have a 1/35 loco but because it was a monster of a train the scale dosen't look too bad beside some K&C figures. K&C figures that come with vechicles tend to be smaller than 1/30 so there is a bit of 'wriggle room'

But again that is the proble with 1/30.. It is good for figures, but then when you get to making the vehicles, the size is a little too big!

1/32 might be better
