shortliner Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 A Google for HO switch stands throws up quite a lot - putting the same into ebay.com throws up a goodly selection too - but note THEY AIN'T CHEAP! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JWB Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Your best bet is the Central Valley plastic kit available from Walthers http://www.walthers.com/exec/productinfo/210-1604 These are kits, you need to add wire as well. They are of course more fragile than metal ones, which are available from NJI. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Canada Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 If you're looking for CN or CP then there's these: http://www.osbornmodelkits.com/HO_scale_railroad.htm and about 3/4's the way down the page. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewC Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 If you're looking for CN or CP then there's these: http://www.osbornmod...le_railroad.htm and about 3/4's the way down the page. Great products but a shame they are using a poor online service that can't handle overseas orders. Email & going through hoops to get a money order is a big pain in the nether regions. Hmmm perhaps I'll look into getting stuff shipped to MIL instead. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
