Anyone know of source(s) of 1/24 oil drums? probably about half a dozen required.

Follow the link to page 1 of the catalogue, go about a quarter the way down and there y'go.

In fact check out all the catalogue pages there's a few on each page in one form or another.

Here's another one.. G-scale (1:20 - 1:22.5, 1:24-ish), comes unpainted..

(http://www.levelz.co.uk/acatalog/SS001oildrum.jpg)

Available from Pepper7 (http://www.pepper7.co.uk/).. click on Enter, then G-Scale, then Sidelines, then Sidelines Scenics and they're about half-way down.. also oil cans, jerry cans, fish boxes, etc.  The quality is good.. you can also pick these up at a few railway shows that Steve (Pepper7/Sidelines) attends.

Very many thanks. Now I know I can get them, (and fire extinguishers - a bonus!) I can plan the deck arrangement accordingly.
