Railway 1:16
Posted: Fri Dec 27, 2013 8:38 pm
Hi, guys!
For some time I was looking for 1:16 scale railroad, but without any specific results. Then I decided to buy the nearest scale railway parts and it was 1:22,5 or as otherwise known LGB railroad.
But it seemed to be too small compared to the tanks, cars and soldiers.
Making some search a little more on Ebay, I found some railway LGB parts that suggested me on the thoughts about the manually-built tracks.
Material for sleepers I found in a building materials store and it perfectly matches (15mmx10mm) the 1:16 scale.
The adaptation is shown in pictures. Of course, the rail looks a little bit too small, but for now it is the best result that I reached.
When the ordered parts will arrive and I'll build a small piece of the tracks, I'll include a photos of the results.
Have a nice weekend!
