N Scale B&M Passenger....?

Dec 15, 2009 12 Replies

It seems to me that I recall an announcement having been made some months ago about a company going to produce and release some N Scale passenger equipment - not the wooden coaches and combines produced by MTL(?).



I don't remember the manufacturer or where I saw the announcement.



I've looked everywhere (that I can think of), but can't find them.



Can anyone help with some info?



Thanks,



Andy


I haven't heard anything. I model Broken & Mangled in N scale so I'm also on a lookout for those models.

Hello, and I thought the OP was looking for a model RR that ran on baked beans. Sincerely,

Rapido is taking orders for a couple of the Osgood Bradley cars in B&M livery. They are closing advance orders on the

18th, so don't tarry!

IIRC, THE John Armstrong worked where you now work.

Those are cars are H0 scale. We were talking about N scale.

My error! Pesky horribly oversize stuff...

The bottom of page 2 does talk about N-scale cars. But it's in such small print, it's easy to miss. (Are you sure you're up to modeling in N-scale, eyesight-wise... :)

Rapido is redoing many of their HO cars in N, so they may issue a B&M car or two in future. They also offer undecorated versions. Like pretty well every road, B&M bought and sold cars, so the odds are that some other cars are an exact models of B&M cars, or very close stand-ins. Just (re)paint and decal.

You almost gave me a heart attack! I could have missed a chance for ordering B&M Osgood Bradley cars in N scale!!! But this was only a cruel mistake. :-)

I don't think that Rapido will offer this cars in N scale anytime soon.

That will probably depend on how well his other N scale offerings sell. There is a strong market for quality passenger cars at this time, and he has already done the research for the OB cars. E-mail Jason and let him know your wishes!

I suppose that an email won't hurt. Peteski
