I am looking for a few "O" gauge fire hydrants and checked through most of the detail parts dealers listed in the source list as well as Ebay. I don't want to buy a bunch of park or street figures (including Dogs!) just to get one fire hydrandt. I did find one source in the source list and will use them if I can't find anything to compare them with.

 

Any suggestions?

 

Thanks in advance,

Ken

I'll put some in the package I have waiting to go out to you.

You can chop off the bases and repaint if you want something more realistic. I'll throw in a couple of park benches I had laying around too. 

 

The figure shows you the relative size, at least until the bear eats him then you'll only have the relative size to a pile of bear poop.

Thanks! I looked at both and did not see them. I scrolled though Bershire Valley's castings twice thinking I had seen them before. When I did a search at Model Tech Studio'e it came up blank.

 

That's OK. Thanks for the suggestions. I am going to take Frank up on his offer. He tends to bail me out quite often as you will see in tomorrows show case. He is my "pipe" supplier as well, at least untill I paniced and went out and bought 2 of the kits that he was sending me parts of!  In my defense I did not know what he had left untill I had already won the auctions! nyone need some pipe when I finish up?

Les...That is a great looking casting but the description is confusing me just a bit. I was looking for a height and it stated 5/32" above sewer grate.

Table top tripod. Best ten bucks I ever spent.

 

Frank, I lnew that. I have one as well. They are pretty handy when doing train pictures. Now If my camera was only as easy to locate as my cell phone camera!

 

I was trying to be funny. I guess I'd better stick to my day jub huh?
