1:27.7 scale figures for an 18inch Industrial Railway Project - Updated 01.09.22

(1/36) > >>

dampfpanzerwagon:
Slightly off-piste - I have been playing about with the scale/gauge combination of 1:27.7 (or 11mm = 1 foot) and 16.5mm PECO 'crazy track'. The results can be found on my Blog at;
http://dampfpanzerwagon.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/Narrow%20Gauge

However, following comments on my Blog. I have had six 1:27.7 scale figures cast in resin and will be making them available for sale very soon. see this post for details;

Should you be interested in joining me in this adventure you can find more details on the Blog.

Thank you.

Earlier today, I posted details of the third resin set - a group of five items of 'clutter'. Like the earlier figures/character, these items have been cast in resin by Rob Alderman of Hysterical Games and will be available to buy very soon.

Tony, this is absolutely great stuff!
I immediately recognized the Feldbahn engine as a Motorenfabrik Oberursel make. I was raised and lived for 20 years in that town, learned my profession in the halls of that company and still dream of replicating the railway station in H0 scale... Thank you for awakening sweet memories!
The new sculpts are excellent, although that is a scale you'd hardly find buyers/modelers for in continental Europe, I think. If it is of interest to you to find some, try to post your stuff over there:

It's in German, but I'd be happy to help with translation.  :)

dampfpanzerwagon:
Thank you Michi, I glad you like it (so far).

I notice that the railway modelling site is a members only site, so will have a think about joining and posting. However I think I might just take a stab at it.

They're mainly "G" scale in 1/22,5 (gauges II, IIm, IIe und IIf), but also all other big scales from 1/1 to 1/32.
"Anlagenbau" sub-forum is most interesting for you, I think. When I followed this thread I felt like a clumsy schoolboy: http://www.buntbahn.de/modellbau/viewtopic.php?t=11448&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0

BTW: There is a museum near my home where you find exclusively the relatively rare 1/2 metre gauge industrial railway prototypes on display/in action (open to the public only twice a year): http://www.feldbahn500.de/gelaende_frameset.htm
