6mm resin Railway Buildings

[levenminiatures]

Just wondering what call there is for 6mm buildings for railways? I manufacture 6mm resin buildings and have produced a range of typically British railway buildings - era around 1940s to present day. I would like to expand the range, but only if it's going to be worthwhile. Alternately, anyone got any suggestions for a suitable scale to produce some in?

Would like to see these in 15mm scale also

Railway buildings for 6mm are only good for Z gauge which is limited to one railroad model manufacturer (Märklin 1/220th scale) it you aim to railway layouts/model railroaders for ascending numbers of sales. That said, Maärklin does not produce any British railway model...
Wargaming wise you could think about casting tracks, trains or train sections (of three wagons or so).

20mm gamers will be thankful for buildings in 1/72 (better 1/76 for the 00 railroad modelers too) and 28mm gamers for any in 1/50-1/60, I guess.

How about a set of track pieces on raised earth embankments, including an embankment passing over a road tunnel and spanning a river by girder bridge? Would serve from 19th Century Franco Prussian War/ACW battles through WW1 & WW2 up to Moderns/Cold War.

Hi - thanks for that - I already do the tracks but your idea of rolling stock is interesting - will have to look into that. I know H&R do armoured trains but I don't think they do the rolling stock, and I don't want to tread on their toes so to speak.

I do the tracks & bridges etc., but seeing as everyone's layouts are unique I kept it to basic items to let everyone lay them out as they wish, but will look into something along those lines. thanks

Am currently looking into 10mm scale, but I think 15mm would be a little large for my facilities. You know where to find me for 6mm though...
