Lineside Trunking

Posted by Weeblexx123 | Apr 24, 2018 | Railway Infrastructure | 4 |

I love the lineside trunking but unfortunately I am N Gauge. So I was having a ponder in the man cave and I picked up some off cut strips of greyboard… Lightbulb (5W) came on so I checked to see if the OO scale trunking had dimensions listed on the site. It did so a quick bit of mathematics and with 2mm thick greyboard I am only 0.5 mm down in height. Length and width no problem. So I am thinking scratchbuild the lengths I need and cover it with TX106 or TX122 concrete texture sheets with lines to mark joins ?. Comments and advice very welcome. Anyone tried anything similar ? 🙂 Chris

That sounds a good light bulb moment & i think will work very well indeed.
