    while three inches divided by eighty seven gives 0.0344 which is correct for HO, the trucks themselves are much closer to N scale .... and the the couplers can literally be HO or N as the builder sees fit, along with possible brakes ...
    These were constructed over a very wide period and may have many modifications

    There is a lot of whimsy in HOn30 modeling.....

    Hey Boxcab,

    Tried printing these out today and pretty much ended up with a 0.85x0.09x0.06 box. The queenpost didn't print at all.

    Sorry about that. I could try again making them a little bigger.

    Thanks Chris. I do appreciate the effort. Probably best to not expend any further energies on the idea.
