| This model is entirely brass with the exception of the white-metal finials. It is fitted with a plug-in coupling so that it can be removed and replaced whenever necessary (eg: to clean the track). All the arms are driven with bounce mechanisms. The paintwork is toned down with some light weathering and blackened where it would be subjected to the smoke of locomotives passing beneath. Click here to see pictures of the gantry being built. Some of the photographs were taken before the spectacle glasses were added. |
