Ordered those Herpa vehicles from Walthers, that Greg recommended.  Just what I need!  Thanks.

Love to see what you have built so far. This sounds great!

Well, I have tried and tried without success to embed a couple of photos.  In the meantime, check out a couple of photos on the modeling page of my web site;

Don't know why I cannot embed these photos in a post here.  Also, I seem to have screwed up the above page today adding the canal photos :-(

Herpa makes several sets of 1/500 vehicles as accessories to their 1/500 airliner collection. Check Walthers.com, item number 326-519812; it's shown as being currently in stock.

I don't really know of anyone who makes 1/500 scale vehicles.

Good luck. Hope you find some.

Need 1:500 scale vehicles
Posted by Don Stauffer on Saturday, January 30, 2010 10:09 AM

I am working on a diorama of the Duluth ship canal.  Odd scale came about because it eventually will be a coffee table. I was able to find figures because there is a new japanese model railroad scale close to that, but the company does not yet make vehicles, and I want a bunch in the scene. I occasionally do resin casting, but that is my last resort- making a few patterns and doing the resin work.

Anyone know of any vehicles close to 1:500 scale?  Want cars, vans, maybe a couple of light trucks.  BTW, already completed the ship, the Ryerson, that will be coming through the canal.  Working on the lift bridge- that is a LOT of work!
