PSL Roadrailer project - detail CAD for resin cast or 3D print

.... from what I know, the american air system had a set up so that as the coupling pins were retracted the brakes were applied - it could be something like that ? - any how, I have been doing a bit more as and when work and family allow !

Please give us an update on this project if possible. Prompted to ask after the mention of Roadrailer as a drift on Mike Edge's workbench thread. Thanks.

He hasn't been in for 5 months. Sending a PM might trigger an email to him.

Seems a terrible shame that this very promising model seems to have stalled. Hopefully the developer hasn't forgotten the deep interest shown on here and that we might get some sort of update.

Those members who took an interest in this thread will probably be aware that the production Roadrailers differed from the two prototypes in several respects.

 

One of these differences was in the detail of the sideframes carrying the road and rail axles.

 

Close-up photographs of the prototype sideframes are relatively easy to source, but the same cannot be said for the production ones.

 

I have a feeling that I have seen such an image at some point, but I cannot now recall where.

 

If anyone is able to point me at such a photo, I would be extremely grateful.

 

Many thanks in anticipation,

John Isherwood.
