New to American OO but understand all OO is 1/76. I plan to detail some Scalecraft passenger cars and am looking for 1/76 diaphrams right now. I suspect HO will be too small.

"HONGZ" stands for HO scale, N scale, G scale, and Z scale.
Post your non-O scale stuff here!

Learning 3-d CAD & Shapeways will be your friend in this venture, also a laser cutter will be a good tool to have
I was hoping to just find some rubber diaphrams. I assumed most all of European OO passenger cars had them but so far scouring the web I have found no dealers that offer parts. These cars are just to display with my Lionel Hudson. I wasn't planning to super detail them.

Found a listing for Ratio corridor connectors (diaphragms) on this web site--
might be close to what you're looking for.
Thank you Scotie. Great tip. I guess I have to learn the lingo. Searching on diaphrams produces nothing but Corridor Connectors brings all kinds of hits.

I've had an interest in British railways much of my life. Part of the fascination is the differences in nomenclature. One of my favorites is "up trains" and "down trains". Of course the internet helps now days.
Glad I could help.

Try the link below - this American OO scale blog is probably your best bet - John Ericson does a nice job of documenting OO history as well as how he’s progressing on his OO layout:
