Walthers HO EMD 567 Prime Mover kit # 933-3119
Posted by dragonriversteel on Thursday, August 2, 2018 12:06 PM

In a bit of a pickle. Recently scratch building a HO River Tug for my Scrap Yard. Slowly working on the details. One being a Caterpillar V-16 engine just for this Tug.

I don't have the Walthers 567 kit for size reference to scratch the Caterpillar. Walthers doesn't have measurements.

If someone has the time or 567 kit laying around.

Would you please measure in rough milimeters the length,height and width of the built HO Walthers 567 kit ?

You'd be helping out tremendously !

The E-crane is near completion (needs grapple),new 75' scrap barge built and still working on the Tug.

Many more scratch builds to go...
