I'm admittedly desperately searching for this horse, anyone know what the brand is or where I can buy one? It's suspected that it's from some model railroad kit. Anyone recognize it?

I don't know. But it looks like a copy of the traditional breyer mold Old Timer. But you probably knew that already.

Model railroad models are mostly painted i think. I think this looks more like a figure like Revell or anything else:)

The person that owns this one said it looks like he is glued together from a kit scratch But of course I'm not set on that idea.

I just perused a site with unpainted figures as well as the usual painted ones.  Most of the unpainted figures were animals though there were a few packages of unpainted humans.

But I have seen a similar equine figure of the same size.  It was a toy set from the 20-mule-team Borax Company.  Found one here: [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
You can see the mules are made in 2 pieces which one would glue together.

I would guess the micro mini "Old Timer" probably came from some model railroad figurines company.

I don't recognise the specific figure, but in style I'd say almost definitely Preiser, they have produced a lot of new-sculpt horse-drawn military stuff in the last few years, but they don't tend to have heavy collars as they pull in teams with traces running along the sides (? I'm not a horse furniture expert!!!), so it's probably an older cart or wagon horse from the 70's, re-issued in one of the large unpainted sets.

Their output and back catalogue is now vast, so worth a dig, you'll find the horses you want there....somewhere! Smile.

Noch have also got into high quality figures in recent years, I don't if they've done horses though?

Widukind is right too, it looks a lot like the Accurate ACW artillery horses (also issued by Revell), but it's not got the outrider's saddle's most of the military subjects have?....

Thank you! I searched all through Preiser and didn't find anything, but I did eventually find him after a lot of digging, he's made by Highway Products. cheers
