Here is part for a newer diesel train. Our client had purchased a 1/8 scale part in plastic from another vendor, but it was too fragile and broke. We scanned the broken parts and fixed everything digitally in software. The sections were made thicker and deviated from scale is some areas for additional strength. Finally, the finished product was compared against photos of an actual horn and adjusted accordingly. The finished model is around 1.5 inches long. The best source of information on this horn is found here: http://atsf.railfan.net/airhorns/m5.html
 Here is the finished model. |
