OO Scale > Diecast
When OO scale trains grew in popularity in the 1950's/60's there was a lack of suitable diecast models to add to the railway scene.
There was the Dublo Dinky range from Meccano which had about a dozen or so models, and then a few Lesney Matchbox toys just happened to be an acceptable scale (although they were not, as a range, built to any particular scale).
We did get OO scale buses and a few trucks from EFE and more buses from Corgi Original Omnibus, and later from Britbus and others, but these were detailed bus liveries and are really aimed at the model bus collector.
Now we have a huge assortment of cars and other vehicles available in 1:76 scale. Three of the more prolific manufacturers are listed here and we will show what we have in stock from these suppliers.
We are also pleased to advise that effective immediately you can follow the link below which will take you to the site of our diecast supplier, John Ayrey Diecast, who are located in the UK.
You can peruse their product listings, see what is in stock or coming, and contact us to bring an item in for you. We obviously don't have shipments every week but we do bring items in every couple of months and we will add your request to our next shipment from them and will advise you as it arrives. Our pricing will be the C$ equivalent of the retail UK price shown on John Ayrey Diecast's website.
