Attending the upcoming 2013 East Coast Meet in W. Springfield, Massachusetts January 26-27, 2013 will definitely make some favorable impressions on visitors regarding the state of modeling vehicles in 1/87 (HO) scale! Our lead photo for Photo Gallery 549 is from Wade Roese who has, for the past several years, shown up at our meets in W. Springfield with some of the most impressive scratchbuilt brass models you'll ever see. This truck crane is almost entirely scratchbuilt! About the only items not scratchbuilt from brass are the wheels and tires. We hope you join us or come visit us in W. Springfield and see all the great modeling presented. We hope you enjoy all the latest photos of great 1/87 scale vehicle modeling in our Photo Gallery 549. [posted 1/15/2013]
