    New Venture

    By Spamcanman,

    Having modelled BR(S) for more years than I care to tell I have recently been lured into the planning of a US O scale end-to-end exhibition layout, which will be 24 feet long and 2 feet wide. It will be themed around transporting ore in the South Western US in the early 50's so that steam and diesel is OK.
    I am puzzled by my initial searches of manufacturers of US outline locos and stock. Firstly very little seems to be available in the UK but secondly I am amazed that three-rail still seems to predominate. Thirdly, visits to loco makers sites show 'no stock' is available in any of the types suitable for my layout.
    As a complete newcomer to this side of modelling I would welcome input from those more experienced in American outline O gauge/scale.
