I’m looking to order some detail stuff for my scratch built engines. Has anyone ordered the ones from PSC?
ps-9852? any other numbers maybe for the three hose rig on each side?
How about the MU electrical boxes and cables?
I need some for 1/32. Maybe 1/29 would be close enough.
I clicked on the sponsor link on top of the page. I thought they had started a project for 1/32 scale?
All I see are ones for 1/20??

If it was me I’d order O scale glad hands for MU hoses. They are small enough to look right, and then you could keep the 1/32 ones for the brake line. I thought Geoff was making them for 1/32, but maybe he stopped as not enough people bought them? I wish he would have released them in 1/29 instead
MU hoses are currently three lines (Main, Actuating, Application/Release), but in the past they were up to 5 (M, A, A/R, Sand?, Whistle?) as the MU cables weren’t 27 pins like they are now.
MU cables could be ordered from Ozark as they have both MU stands , and cables.
If both 1/32 and 1/29 glad hands were available this is what I would do.
1/29 for trainline (brakes), 1/32 for Main Res line, 1/48 for the rest. The main res. line is slightly larger than the A and A/R lines, but not the same size as the trainline…
