safety railings project | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

I decided to add an upper level platform to allow three more tracks for train storage. To save money, I used items from around the shop. The rail posts are 1/8" dowel, the railing is extra wire I had from another project. It was a bit tricky drilling 1/16" holes in the 1/8" posts, but the project turned out pretty nice.

Vic,

I really like the look of the handrail. I use a lot of Plastruct handrail and it is nice to have some variety on the layout.

I used piano wire and cotter pins for the safety rail on my viaduct.
