the imp Posted September 12, 2010 Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 Found this train at Col. Marbles froth forum. It's scaled for use with 28mm figures and I think it'll be perfect for Malifaux. If it's not too expensive I'll definitely be getting one for train robbery scenarios and just a neat piece of terrain to add to a city board.

Chucklemonkey Posted September 12, 2010 Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 I spotted that train on another website but i'm never sure on scales. It is very nice indeed. If as you say the scale is right I may have to remember it for after Terraclips are released. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stanislav Posted September 12, 2010 Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 ehhhhh, it's cool, but $140 Canadian with shipping is a little expensive. You can troll ebay and garage sales (or even toys R' Us like jmpmydog) for a fitting and cheaper train. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AvatarForm Posted September 12, 2010 Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 That is a pretty sweet kit. Unless you are lucky to get something cheap from a toy store, most decent 1/56 or 'O' scale train kits are around that price these days anyway. Its a bit steep for an individual purchase for terrain, but Im sure clubs can pitch in together for something that adds value for all. You could even 'science' it up like the train at the end of Back to the Future 2. All in all, a nice centrepiece for a board or diorama.

Ciaran Posted September 13, 2010 Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 A guy that writes a blog I follow had nothing but problems ordering from their company. It took a couple of months to get his handful of models. They do beautiful work, their costumer service leaves much to be desired though... It is a nice looking train. I'd troll eBay (as was suggested) and look for some cheap plastic snap together set so I could kitbash it all to hell in order to steampunk it up.

zomblaya Posted September 13, 2010 Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 Very nice! when you order it if you do. pictures please! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nilus Posted September 13, 2010 Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 I'd check out garage sales and Antique stores. My Dad collects trains and there is a market for antique "O" scale stuff but most people don't realize it. My dad has spent 5 dollars on engines that are worth thousands to collectors. Plus if you look for antique 50s era "O" scale you will find a lot of Old West/Victorian era trains(since cowboys were so big back then). And they will be fully metal which means they will hold up well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
