Title: Metal handrails for G scale passenger cars.
Post by: New ChooChoo on July 19, 2009, 11:55:22 PM
 I have been working on my Silverado set and am really liking it. I would like to upgrade the handrails on the passenger cars to metal ones, but cant seem to find a site that handles them. Some say they do,but once at the site there is nothing available. Any ideas?

Nice photo. They sure make those warped plastic things look even sicker. I'm sold.

Glad the question was asked by New Choo Choo. What other good questions do you have.

I have a new ET&WNC set (Mountaineer). It's about time for it to hit the ground.

The only thing you really need for the ozark railings is the brass rod for the brake that you can get at just about any hobby/craft shop. I ended up leaving the stock bachmann observation end and drum, though I did make a few changes  ;D
