                        Hi, my newest project ideais that of a scratch built tiger tank railcar for 1/72 scale but with HO wheels. I was wondering how would i make the wheel axles seeing that it is actually 3 pairs of wheels under each end of the transport? Is there an HO company that has triple axled wheels

                        For German prototypes try Rico. For american try Athern, Walthers, Eastern car works, and kadee.

                         Dont worry about the thumbprint, paint it Rust , and call it "Battle Damage"

                        Planet Models does a resin rail car for a Tiger tank. I've got the smaller light tank one (MV 047). The Tiger one is MV 048.

                        Figured the parts layout would be handy in scratch building one.
