Would anyone have time to build a GE 23-ton Diesel Switcher? I know, build it "yourself." Unfortunately, my 3D modeling skills are too poor to admit. However, I have an excellent set of scale drawings that might make the task a lot easier.

If you're interested, send me a PM.

Are the drawings technical, or are they actual scale drawings as in 1:18, 1:36, or 1:55?

Just a quick disclaimer, I am not 3D modeler, but I do have a need for clean scale drawings in 1:55

The drawings are in HO scale. I believe that is 1:64.

Ahh, well digging up some info it turns out not to be HO, which is 1:87 scale.


It turns out you have a rarer S gauge drawing, which is American Flyer.

Sorry, they are HO scale. I just forgot the numbers.

Has Dogmouse been around lately? He made the beloved S2, I think he would be the perfect person to ask.
