The fender would be five feet by three, fairly large to be moved about for mooring. If it were for a permanent use, ie for a ferry docking , it would probably be ideal. Might be best to roll up a piece of plasticine that size and see what it looks like in situ? Rich

Mid-Cornwall Lines - 1950s Western Region in 00

SR "Exmouth Junction" concrete Halt
Ashley Bridge replied to Gwiwer's topic in Kitbuilding & Scratchbuilding
If you don’t manage to scource a supply, you could speak to Poppy’s Woodtech, he does a range of lineside laser cuts and could maybe do some of the Exmouth Junction castings as they were used everywhere in the Southern Region. Some of their basic moulds would definitely make business sense. I made my own running in boards based on the Southern Nuveau drawings. -

If you were the other side of Exeter, in the domain of the Duck, the mixture of part rakes would be usual. It was normal practice to detach/attach a single BCK for say, the Seaton Branch, or a BTK/CK pair for a heavier day, so only the main through trains used the longer sets.

Well done, Kevin. That’s a handy tip about superglue being an insulator. I have usually drilled a clearance hole around the brush gear when chipping a split chassis It’s always nice to see someone dispelling the “magic” about dcc. looking great, and you’ll never have traction problems. Rich
