Tips and Techniques

N & HO SCALE CONCRETE TUNNEL PORTALS

with ENGRAVED LETTERING

Available for B&O, C&O, DRG&W, ATSF and SP.
Custom names also available.

Using laser cut technology these models simulate concrete tunnel portals used by the B&O, C&O and D&RGW railroads. The models use multiple layers of various thickness acrylic and other materials to create accurate prototype based renditions of the actual tunnels. Price listed is for one portal kit. To model both ends of a tunnel, you will need two portals. In some cases, the prototype portals on a tunnel are different, so please be careful when selecting the portals you want.

Please allow 3 to 4 weeks for delivery as these are custom cut based on your order. If you wish to customize, we can engrave other names, numbers, railroad logos, or just about anything you want on these tunnels for an addtional charge of $10 per portal. Send us an email for further information: info@alkemscalemodel.com If you want a tunnel portal in a different scale such as Z, S, or O please conatct us for pricing and availablity.

The inner layer is designed to accept a thin styrene sheet (not included) to allow more realistic modeling of the tunnel lining. This drawing illustrates assembly for a typical model. Each model is slightly different, but the general idea is the same. The example above shows Crozet Tunnel with a sheet of brick paper (not included) used as a liner.

Custom Engraving Please add $10 per change in artwork. Thus two copies of one tunnel portal with custom engraving would be $10. Making two copies each of two portals would cost 2 times $10 or $20. Click the paypal buttom for each $10 charge. Send your artwork to info@alkemscalemodels.com
