Danish Wittrock tinplate | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

Jim O'COGR Forum Member

picked up a few Wittrock freight cars last week. Simply-built Danish prewar consist including log car, gondola and a "Kohl Vogn" Coal wagon boxcar. Most you find are HO gauge, these are more 5-inch tabletop size with simple T&S couplers.

What gauge are those?

Jim O'COGR Forum Member

I believe they are OO, I will measure the axles tonight. Similar in size to the Hornby/Hachette-sized freights.

Those are great Jim, I love them!

These freights are O scale and are 5-inch bodies on 1-3/8-inch wide wheels (flange to flange)

It would be neat, if the clock on the train station actually worked ! Jim Cotter.

Very interesting to see different tinplate from far away. The Binn's Road website has a few pics of Wittrock items.

Jim,

That seems to be a Kibri station; Kibri made some station with clocks that worked (of course you have to wind up). See pictures:
