mdvle Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 This thread(*) on a 7mm turnout kit led to a supplier called Greenwood Model Railway, whose website shows laser cut turntables. In addition to showing a Swiss turntable they also indicate a willingness to do custom stuff, so perhaps anyone wanting a turntable or other track stuff may find them willing to do American prototype stuff.  https://greenwoodmodelrailwayproducts.co.uk/  * - https://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/152088-7mm-fs-turnout-kit/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickBrad Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 I just looked on there and cried inside at the prices..... it may be custom stuff, but oh wow, it is a premium. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickBrad Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Oh wow, I didn't realise that either, I guess IÂ haven't looked at a turntable since Hornby's one many years ago, what with my being a died in the wool diesel fan, I never had need of one when modelling UK railways, likewise my favoured era/location of US railroading, turntables don't exist, (except at Salisbury, NC at the railroad museum).

Night Train Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Simon at Kitwood Hills does much more realistically priced turntables. Â http://www.kitwoodhillmodels.com/on30-turntables/ 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
