rel14 Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 yes, you have to look under trains, they call it G scale, which is 1/24/ 1/25 scale. good luck, try your local train shops. Maybe they have some or can order them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I belong to a specialty "Half scale " doll house face Book group . Most of what I already scratch build is 1-24th scale anyway . If you still need my help , just give me a P-M and I'll do what I can Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anglia105E Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Raif.... I have absolute respect for both Brian and Ellen, but just a word of caution. Dolls house furniture is very often advertised as 1:24 scale, but actually is too large for a 1:24 scale diorama, or buildings or figures..... the telephone on a desk is a classic example, as the telephone is massive. I know this because I purchased one on Ebay. Also, keep in mind that G-scale or LGB is 1:22.5 scale, so not quite 1:24 scale and slightly larger, but hardly noticed in your models. Some dolls house items are fine, but I just thought I would let you know as I was quite surprised to find things way too big. It is more of an issue with cheap Chinese items, and I have nothing against Chinese people because my wife is Chinese. David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David David , the furniture I buy for my exhibits is really 1-24th , or HALF inch scale . I can't afford FLUBS!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anglia105E Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Fair comment Ellen...... and I am sure you are very careful to buy the correct size furniture for your project. I just felt cheated that having bought something on Ebay that was clearly advertised as 1:24 scale, when I unpacked the items I could see straight away that they were way too big. This sort of thing messes up your schedule for work in progress and completing the project. ( yes I know.... should have returned the items to the seller.... my fault ).
