RailGut in practice

Painted Loads and Bases, and RailGut on real layouts.

Painted by hand

Loads and Bases are made to be finished by you: paint, weather, detail.

How it was made

From a bare wagon to a finished Load: the development of RailGut in photos.

The starting point: a low-loader wagon with nothing on it.

The first adapter on the wagon. This became our first Base.

A first Load: a transformer, 3D-printed.

Painted by hand: the finished result. A second, unpainted Load waits in the background.
