<p>I do a bit of modeling in what I call On27. It is essentially On30 stuff that has been narrowed on top of Sn3 trucks. This scales out to 27" between the rails. Here is a photo of my little gondola. The sides are from Chivers, the flat is built from styrene, the trucks are from PBL. I used Grandt Line On30 and PBL Sn3 details.</p> <p><img src="http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/gg306/aclmodeler/dc32b.jpg" style="max-width: 550px;" border="0" /></p> <p>So far, I have this car, a Foothill Model Works tank car, and a Bachmann Davenport converted and completed. I have several others underway.</p> <p>I didn't want to do On30 because I like the narrower, 2 foot stuff and this is pretty close. But, I also like to buy RTR track and turnouts. The photo above, the car is on a piece of PBL code 55 track.</p> <p>Yeah...I know it's weird. But, ya gotta model something!</p>
