Well in my search for a small N-Scale coal barge I ran across an HO dock side crane that looked pretty interesting but super expensive. But if you are one of those people that has everything and need something that probably no one else on your block has then you might check this website out. I just though it was too good not to share. http://www.bearcomarine.com/other.htm#crane The website even has a little video embedded in the page showing the crane operating. Now if they made it in N-Scale and it was about 10 to 15 times less expensive - maybe, just maybe I might consider it. It looks like this company makes excellent ship models as well and possibly would do custom projects. Mr X
Nice model, super detail, but... at over $1,300 for the static model let alone the $3,600 motorised version, way out of my price range. There was a similar thread featuring a container crane with great features, lights, flashing strobe, and fully opperational but not quite the same price. Walthers have it in stock here's the link http://www.walthers.com/exec/productinfo/322-89001 Nice but... ah well (sigh)
Well you gotta admit, as they say a true work of art. For that price it had better be. So twice the price in O scale? It realy is inpressive but I think I'll pass. "Still Training After All These Years"
Who owns the company that builds this overpriced model- P.T. Barnum? Sure am happy I model the Plains...........
