[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by randybc2003</i> <br /><br />Your post and profile lead me to believe you are somewhat new to this. <br />Try your Local Hoby Shop (LHS) and check out the WALTHERS catalog. They have a number of product lines imported from Europe, and you should be able to find something reasonably "Irish". I think the webpage is "walthers.com", or go to the manufacturers links section of THIS website. Look under "structures", (and others too) <br />Welcome, and Have Fun![^][tup] <br />Randy <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Hmmm. I have to disagree. Most of what's in the Walthers catalog is American or German in nature. And it's HO scale (1:87.1), not OO scale (1:76). Check Hattons, as Railroading_Brit advises, and [url]http://www.holtmodelrailways.co.uk/[/url]. Also check out [url]http://www.scalefour.org/parkside/[/url] for other items that will be useful. They're finescale, true enough, but don't let that intimidate you. <br /> <br />The thing is, Irish standard gauge is 5 feet, 3 inches, not 56-1/2" inches as North American and British standard gauge is. If you don't mind the discrepancy, it's not an issue.
