Pigs, pigs and more pigs

[TurboOne]

My son is into pigs. His Thomas and friend trains all haul pigs. His military train has pigs on them. But these pigs are not in gauge. Has anyone seen a large quantity pack of pigs in HO scale ????? Seen some woodland scenic pigs, but they are $9 for 6 pigs. How bout some unpainted pigs anywhere??

Thanks,

Tim

Enough oink for your buck?

I've been looking at livestock trucks full of porkers. Don't tell them they are on their way to the meat market.

I just saw a great photo of an HO 50' hicube pig pullman by model power for $3.00
OOPS ! ! ! it was in a copy of MR October 1982, but the photo is great, never saw one of these before. They sure must have smelled nice.

Javern, thanks for the links, didn't know how to do a search online. The 6 pink at the top look great, but the 12 woodland are nice. My LHS has 6 for the same price as online 12 cost.

Bob, thanks for the link, glad in wasn't a link sausage. [:)]

Underworld I have to find it and download it and print it. He will think that is great also.

Thanks.

This is exactly why we need a forum for trading. Pigs are usually availible in sets, but not necessarily by themsleves. I need beasts of burden, cattle and lots of horses. If such a thing was set up, I could trade with Tom. Or I could ask the group if anyone had any extra Hogwarts passenger cars. Or I could trade the N scale saw mill I got in a lot with an N scaler that got HO structures.

Sorry Tom. Didn't mean to hijack.

Hey Chip its early, who's Tom ? Water the N scale and add fertilizer, maybe it will grow into HO.

Take a look at http://www.actionfarmtoys.com/64farm3.htm. Some of these may work even though they are at 1:64 scale.
