Springy Bits of Metal.

I've started doing a little testing. A short passenger* train waits to depart...
The reason for the testing is that after some industrial language I have fitted phosphor bronze strip contacts to the transition piece, so the cassettes are now "live"...the soldering isn't quite as bad as it looks!
As the infrastucture stuff is nearly finished, it's time to fill a few scenic gaps, firstly the gates next to the station. These were made from planked Evergreen Styrene, with posts from square section, overlapping bit in the middle black .010" styrene and the capping strips from ¼ round styrene, painted Humbrol Cockpit Green.
*the train is short, but so are the passengers; being H0 scale, they're ⅞ of the size of the rest of the figures, which are 00.
