A common sight alongside the modern railway line is the humble concrete cable trough. Although these are already available as plastic kits from other manufacturers, they represent the older ‘Imperial’ dimensions, where modern concrete trunking sections are usually produced in 1 metre lengths.
The Scale-Replicas.com range of cable troughs are 1/76th scale representations of metric concrete trunking, to suit the OO Gauge 'Modern Image' model railway. They are laser cut from 3mm thick MDF and are available as a fret of straight sections and a fret of corner sections.
The straight sections are easily cut from the fret with a sturdy Stanley knife, or similar.
The corner sections can be used to form right angle and T-junctions.
In the photo above you can see one of our straight sections compared to a plastic representation of the imperial equivalent. The 1m scale sections are much longer than their Imperial counterpart.
