1/48 scale tanks for O gauge trains?
Posted by TigerBaron19 on Thursday, August 30, 2012 9:28 PM

hello all,

I am attempting to create a german troop transport train for an O gauge train track.  First a few questions:

My research shows 1/48 scale armor matches well with O gauge - anyone have any experience?

I am looking for research displaying troop/armor transport SOP - how they were chained down to rail cars, if they traveled in specific units etc.  Any advice?

Thanks for the help and I will keep you all posted.

Yes, I know that 1/48 models go well with O gauge trains.  O gauge is 1/43 scale, I believe, which is close enough to go with 1/48.  As for your other questions, sorry, I don't know.

Gimme a pigfoot, and a bottle of beer...
