In the WW2 period, wagons were in use from a very wide period of time. While wagons built new were obviously in use, there were very many - in fact a majority - in daily use which dated from every decade back to the 1880s, and in a few cases the 1870s. So basically any type of pre-1945 wagon will be suitable. Where is your layout based? Quote

Galteemore Posted September 6, 2024 Posted September 6, 2024 Are you looking at military trains to make a war type scene ? Quote
WRENNEIRE Posted September 6, 2024 Posted September 6, 2024 Where is your layout based? I think what is meant is where are you basing your layout on? Being WW2 I wonder if you are basing it on the continent where there are a lot of proprietary HO models available ROCO, Fleischmann Lilliput etc do a range of military stock Some stuff on eBay: https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=military+trains&_sacat=220&_sop=10&rt=nc&LH_PrefLoc=2 3 Quote
