Thinking of inserting a turntable in layout . | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

"HONGZ" stands for HO scale, N scale, G scale, and Z scale.

Post your non-O scale stuff here!

Could use some solid info on what is a good reliable Motorized turntable to install on my HO layout. Don't need a big one. I do not have any long steamers. Maybe 6 or 8 for a engine barn and Maint. shop. Just visited Grand Strand Model RR, Myrtle Beach , SC and the one they had seemed to work great. But didn't think to ask them what brand it was. By the way, FANTASTIC layout and very friendly bunch of guys. clapping Thanking you in advance for the info.

Millhouse River Studios (Forum sponsor) has a selection of drop-in O-scale turntable. I did not see any HO.

Kit form, a lot of assembly required. Diamond Scale.

Ross switches (Forum sponsor) also has a turntable.

Walther's latest turntable is probably your best bet.

I believe they come in 90', 110' and 130'.

The 130' I got for around $270.

Don't get the first edition version as I heard they had problems. ie, 130' is 2859 (latest version) versus 2850 (first edition).
