The Railnuts continue to work on Rode Cutting in preparation for next month’s exhibition at Chester Cathedral.
In this video:
• We see the latest state of the layout.
• Pete has some regret as to the level of detail being modelled and the lack of time remaining.
• Dave adds the corner back scene panels.
• The barn is not big enough!
• Peter makes progress on the under board wiring.
• John and Robin cut out and assemble bespoke gantries.
• Phil discusses new building plans.

Superb effort! I’ve walked through Roade cutting many times at 1:57 captures it perfectly. Although the “birdcage” only spans the up and down slow in real life and the fast lines climb up and turn to Blisworth. Pete is right the cage is mostly black so beautifying is possibly the word he was after!

reckon there is a transfer structure or underslung soil pipes causing the increase in height of the ffl distance. The different colours on the GA's probably represents different tenures. One colour will be social rent, another will be shared ownership, another will be affordable rent, and one will be 'high end'. All the balconies will be bolt on, you might as well just 3d print a load of similar ones. There are lots of manufacturers these days, each of which will allow some customisation.

Still puzzled. Are you running trains with the pantogrsphs clipped down? If not how are they transitioning the Roade cutting with no contact wires?

That's where I come in, between Phil and I we've got the solutiion to that . Almost all the 'birdcage will be removable just in case there are any derailments but we can still run with pans up. Aron

Where we’re going, you don’t need “rode’s” 😂 That said, from a person who has worked that piece of line on many an occasion, it does bring back memories 👍
