I tried to sell my two cents worth, but no one would give me a plug nickel for it.

I don't have a leg to stand on.

Try towerhobbies.com and look for around 1:160 to 1:190 or 1/16th inch equals a foot.

Someone else just ask. They usually don't market the ship kits as a scale MRR people are used to ie. HO or N.

The 1:192 or 1/16 inch equals a foot seems to be a popular size of ship building. That makes the model a little smaller than it should be but hard to tell by most viewers.

N Scale Wharf Scene
Posted by Anonymous on Saturday, February 26, 2005 9:37 PM
I'm planning a wharf scene. I'll be using the N Scale Architect Racquet Lake Navigation transfer bridge on to a scratchbuilt 6 or 8 car float barge. Does anyone know of an N scale waterline tug boat kit??
