Hey everyone! I'm wondering if any of you happen to have the O Gauge Lionel P&H truck crane? How does it size up beside a 1:50 crane? Would it possible to take some comparison pictures? I've noticed it seems rather small. I know the boom and hoist is stationary which brings up another question, how big of a task would it be to modify it into a functional model? I'd say I'm a somewhat good builder so I'm not too concerned about having to make the parts from scratch

Thanks

Its smaller than 1/50...I have the crane and the shovel here and both look too small with 1/50 models...the shovel is maybe 1/64 scale but the crane if I had to guess around 1/55

O scale is supposed to work out to be 1/48th
