WTB - Iron Pony 1" scale joint bars

Post by Rob Gardner »

Before I venture further down the road of making my own joint bars, does anyone have any Iron Pony joint bars for their 1" scale rail they no long want or need?

Sincerely,

Rob Gardner

For the 1/2" or 5/8" high rail?

Matt,

The rail I have is 0.850" tall. Perhaps it's not Iron Pony?

That sounds a lot like Culp rail that used to be sold out of Florida, I believe. Not too sure of the where. I remember seeing it advertised for sale in Live Steam magazine and places back in the 80's and 90's. I do remember that it wasn't quite as tall as the rail we were using at the time, which was 1" tall.

Check with Alexander Karnes, who I believe purchased the Peter Nuskey business.

That’s not the iron Pony rail, but as said already Culp
rail most likely.

I make joiners for the 5/8” rail, but to the Culp rail.

Thanks for all the tips and leads. Alexander has confirmed that this stuff matches the Culp rail design and I should be able to get joint bars from him. Thanks again everyone.
