Talking T Gauge

I ran into this store while searching for some unrelated craft supplies:

1/400 scale white plastic architectural vehicle models. Should be a good source of cars and trucks for T. I can't quite make sense of the pricing -- a bag of 20 assorted is only slightly more than a bag of 8 of one type.

These look good! And not expensive at all Smile

A pity they do not ship to international customers..

Thanks for posting the link. I think I'll seize the day and order a pack. If I do I'll holler with the results.

Those guys at E.M.A. sell figures, cars, lorries and buses, in both 1/400 and 1/500. There's even a 1/500 assorted vehicles pack, with 100 vehicles for only 15 pounds.
I was wondering which scale would be the most convincing on a T gauge layout. I remember seeing a discussion about this somewhere, though I can't find it.
Has anyone ever tried these two scales in a T layout?
