HO Turntables

Model Railroaders -

I'm looking for a turntable with at least an 18 inch diameter to handle the Allegheny and Big Boy locos.

Any help?

Bowser Manufacturing makes a kit for an 18" HO turntable. Fair warning, this is a 'craftsman' type kit, and will require a bit of skill and experience to complete successfully.

Of course you could extend the excellent and low priced Atlas Turntable , I seem to remember the tracks being extended out over the turntable pit.

I have a Diamond Scale turntable that is 18 3/4" that will accomodate the largest HO scale locomotives. It is a craftsman kit, but it operates flawlously. I have the motor and the indexing system, also.
