WRENNEIRE Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 thanks UP! funny thing is that she is branded as 'HO' but it is actually '00' Are you sure? They usually deal in HO only and there are several versions of those type of vehicles around , all of which are HO, Even the Bachmann one is a HO model but sold as OO http://www.ehattons.com/28392/Bachmann_USA_16948_Ballast_vehicle_with_crane_motorised_DCC_ready_/StockDetail.aspx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garfield Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 (edited) Spectrum is part of Bachmann's US-outline range and as Wrenn says, it's HO scale. Edit: Pipped at the post by Warbonnet! Edited February 14, 2014 by Garfield Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BosKonay Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 They re-released the tamper in OO too (I think another new release is coming soon) but its the same Spectrum HO version, just a new box. Quite the bugger to get a decoder into too That said that little vehicle with the crane jib is a half decent running for it's size! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heirflick Posted February 14, 2014 Author Share Posted February 14, 2014 size comparison... the old plasser is the HO version Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
