Walthers 90' turntable N scale?

[sinebar]

I know Walthers makes the 90' turntable in HO scale but do they make it in N scale? They make the 130' in N scale but it's a little big.

Nope, no 90 footers in N scale. The closest is the Atlas turntable at http://www.walthers.com/exec/productinfo/150-2790. It's 7.5 inches in diameter.

Yep that's what I thought so I bought the 130' walthers. It's odd that they make the 90' and 130' in HO but only the 130' in N.

I suspect that, with the space available in N scale, there's really not much of market for a shorter turntable. HO is a lot more space intensive so a smaller turntable makes sense there. I suppose Walthers figures just about any N scale layout bigger than a 2'x4' will accomodate the larger turntable so why make a smaller one?

Guess that makes sense. I have a space about 11' x 5' designated for the N scale layout that should be large enough.
