Wanted: LGB 40190 field railway dump cars

[zach2thefuture]

Hello! I'm looking to buy a pair of these LGB 40190 small dump cars. I'm located in the United States.

Best of luck. They have been out of production for years. Mylargescale.com had a video recently of Jim's RR with a long train if them, which sparked a lot of interest, and questions about buying them. The guys here have some too.

Your other option is to look at these 3D printed ones: 16mm Scale Models from Oliver Price (no relation to me).



I've ordered some in 7/8" scale but don't expect to get them until February 2025 due to his waiting list - from the image taken from his website they look like they will take a bit of a cleanup to meet my expectations but are not overly expensive in kit form.

And I just managed to purchase two of the LGB 40190 Field Dump Cars from James Shourt at Shourtline in the US!

As Fred2179G said it is indeed good luck in searching for them - now if only Newqida would do a knock-off of them!
