Help needed on our not yet definite project

[Erkut Baykal]

Now that Selcuk is museum property the team has now lots of ample time. So what we're doing is ; brainstorming on our next project.

Although not definite yet, we plan doing a mining town, obviously with trains passing through.We plan to do a x-section of the mine, going way below layout ground level, with elevators etc...

Our question is; are there any shops who deals in fine scale mining equipment, gizmos...all in HO scale, in other words; anything related to mining.

Would appreciate your feedback.

Thanks

Hi Erkut,

I'm also mine workers if the scale: 22.5.

In Germany there are some accessories in 1:87.

For example, one of Kibri headframe
and even a mine train from Busch.

Ask Frank Forsten.
There is a german firm that makes a lot of mining buildings and - structures as laser kits.
I can't recall their name.

Is the other idea we discussed in Istanbul changed for this one?

Hi Erkut,

at Frank Forsten, there is a steel mill but not mine.

Here but I still have a very nice mine.

Thanks for all the feedback.We have no problems in making the mining structures...its the little bits and pieces, equipment's , mining cars that we are after.
