Hi,
I make 1:43 code 3 police cars. I've just finished a British Transport Police one, is my 'research' correct in thinking 1:43 diecast cars are the correct scale for O gauge model railways?
Cheers!

Hi
"O" gauge is 7mm/foot or 1:43 scale in the UK (1:48 in the USA).
So your UK police car is correct for a UK "O" layout.
Any pictures?
BTW are you a commercial producer?

Hi thanks for the reply! I'm just finishing the BTP car so i'll take some pics tonight. It's my hobby but selling some helps pay for the materials, at the rate of 1 car every 2/3 months i'd soon go under if I was in business :D

Neat :-)
Unfortunately the wrong scale and too modern too for me!
But nice though.

Thanks! I enjoy making them but they can be rather stressful.
