N scale WWII tanks and vehicles?

Model Railroader General Discussion (Model Railroader)

Is there a manufacturer who makes N scale WWII vehicles? I am planning a N-trak module(our club is running short) themed as an old WWII battlefield and needed tanks, trucks, jeeps, and people. And not just U.S., Germans too. I tried searching and couldn’t find anything, but I’ve seen things in stores.

Thanks,

Nick

Our local Walmart still has some N scale tanks in the toy section.

the walmart ones are 1:144, but close enough for goverment work,

the trackside treasures, 1:160 avail from walthers are simple to assemble and paint two or three piece castings, and affordable to, if filling a train.

Yea, the tanks look close enough. How much are they and do they come in unit packages? If so, How many per pack?

there are six tanks in the walmart set, four german, and two usa, they were around 2 bucks each

the tracksides retail for $8 each for 1tank, two trucks, or three jeeps per package, and have a much greater selection of equipment. wally also has 1:144 scale wwll fighter planes, allin the toy section.

Thanks, river. The Tracksides look unpainted in the walthers catolog, but are they?

And are there other wally packs?

yes, they are unpainted, but it took all of ten minutes to assemble and paint a jeep, and could paint each one slightly different, the plastic wally tanks are all exactlly the same.
