Title: Platform underpass
Post by: Frenchie on May 16, 2016, 04:45:03 PM
I have a plastic underpass which fits into a 19mm * 13mm hole in the platform and came with brass railings. I can't for the life of me remember where I got it from. Can anyone help?
The layout is c1950 so the modern Metcalfe one is quite wrong and this one looked pretty good but its 'other half' is missing.

(Divorced probably!  :laugh:)

If I remember correctly, the Peco kit includes etched brass handrails -

This it?

Didn't they make a matching tunnel section as well?

Dunno.
This is a "dummy" that fits into the platform but doesn't actually go anywhere.

Part number NB7 and listed on the Peco website so should be available through a Peco Stockist £ 5-75 on the Gaugemaster website.
