1:29 Detail Parts
Posted by Benjamin Maggi on Tuesday, October 3, 2006 7:43 PM

I thumbed through a recent copy of Garden Railways magazine to look for manufacturers of large scale detail parts (horns, plows, etc) but aside from Caboose Hobbies I did not see anyone listed.

Specifically, I am looking for Nathan 5-Chime Airhorns. I might have to just end up scratchbuilding the plows, though.

Does anyone make detail parts? Thanks.

On another forum someone said that Ozark Miniatures has them,but they haven't updated their website to include them yet.

Thanks, I will check out that company. Do they sell 1:29 parts in general, or are you saying that they actually have Nathan 5-chime air horns?

I was told they have Nathan 5 chimes along with Leslie 5 chimes.
