Roger ,
i don't know but i sure like them....



We had a nice long train when Shad Pulley brought his by.

Is it REAL? or Just 1:29 scale?

Long live Outdoor Model Railroading.

I don't have any, but I'll hazzard a wild irresponsible guess!!! I'll bet the width was determined by the cars USA made to carry them on rather than scale L-W-H!

How much too wide are they??? I don't know....but it seems that many great models end up with something that isn't quite right.
