There is an Sn42 Yahoo group.... http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Sn42_Conspiracy_Group/ http://groups.yahoo.com/group/critterslist/ http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Sn42/ http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NarrowModular/ 17" radius is gonna limit you alot.... they may have some suggestions.... protoypically for North America, you've got the Newfoundland Rwy (CN)/Terra Transport in Newfoundland.... a couple of their small connecting railroads up there would do for tight radius..... Railmaster for locos... cars would mostly be scratchbuilt, BUT, the NFLD Rwy did change out standard gauge trucks at Port Aux Basques to the 42" gauge trucks for transport on the island... all gone now, as the Trans-Canada Hioghway won out over rail in the late 1980's... bummer !.. Newfoundland Railway groups exist also.... the standard gauge equipment that was re-trucked on the island was either CN or CP owned, probably due to insurance regulations? http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Nfld_Rwy/ have fun !!!!!

To: [email protected] Date: Tuesday, November 30, 2010, 11:25 AM It's Joe Raymaker("JR", usually) out in soggy Bremerton, WA. I joined you all a couple of weeks ago, during a RR dilemma, a decision about which size On30 I wanted to model. After a few conversations I put you all on "remote" mail, and haven't checked back til now. Which size? Whaddya mean which size? On30 is O scale, 1:48, right? Structures are 1:48 but there are many different sizes of engine and rolling stock. "Narrow" gauge is not that restrictive. A look at Boulder Valley Models and at the Peterboro Railroad Store will show you a range from Bachmann (Ohio River and Western) to almost toy-sized cars. Many On30 folks use Bachmann Branchlines and Hornby 00 cars, and Bachmann HO Plymouth/Davenport switchers. So On30 means a lot of different size options. I LIKE the simplicity of opening a box and plopping it on the rails, which leads me to Bachmann sized cars and engines. But the engines look HUGE on my shelf layout, and the most radius can get is 17 inches, which is problematic for anything that big. So, opening thee lid on Pandora's box, does anybody out there do Sn42, putting HO trucks on everything, and mounting S scale shells on HO engines? thanx for any ideas, except: "you're CRAZY!" <g> JR [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
