Good afternoon gentlemen,

I'm sure that this question has probably been asked already, but since N Brass closed, I found found it quite hard to find a suitable source of wagon buffers from. Does anyone know of any suggestions?

Many thanks,

Rob.

You need to be a member of the 2mm SA but they have a range: https://www.2mm.org.uk/products/shops.php?shop_num=2

The N Gauge Society, which you are showing a membership number for, do these

Peco do brass wagon buffers heads, but not, AFAIK, suitable bodies. They push in to the ends of model kit buffers beams.

Thanks for the reply guys. When you think about it, there is not a lot of options out there. I will have to think about what to do next.

I too have missing buffers for the Sonic Vanwide. It's impossible to get spares and the NGS doesn't seem to supply round wagon buffers.

I agree with Bob Tidbury that BH Enterprises is a good choice for turned brass buffers.  I bought some a few months ago (BHE381) and am very pleased with them. 

The BHE catalogue dated 5 April 2025 includes the following list for brass buffers but I do not know if these are all in stock.  Best to check first. 

However, as Bob says, be patient when you order from BHE.
