A leafy question-update
Posted by NVSRR on Friday, January 29, 2021 6:47 PM

Need help finding more trees of this ttype.  I though I had seen these made by faller years ago.  They are a type of rubber. plastic.  The ones I have are close to 40 years. This is for the post war layout as they fit perfectly. not too big but big enough. 

 

I found that the company that made them is called Britians tree.   They are a kit.

I'm a lefty, I can help- wait, sorry, never mind. Those are interesting leaves. Perhaps if you are unable to locate them you could cut them on a digital craft cutter? 

Also, you might ask this on the Classic Toy Trains forum as well, especially if this tree was made a while ago and if it was marketed for O-scalers.

Hi Shane,

I have seen similar trees several times on eBay. Here are a couple of current listings:

The trunks are a little lighter in colour but that can always be adjusted.
