PJM Models OO gauge Platform Cantilever Gantry Triple Pack

PLATFORM MOUNTED CANTILEVER GANTRIES

PJM Models laser-cut overhead gantries allow modelling of the catenary systems used on the British railway network for 25kV AC electric locomotives.

This triple pack of gantries builds platform mounted cantilever type masts using laser-cut plywood parts for the main structure. They were originally created for Pete Waterman's Making Tracks layout and are tried and tested on the series of West Coast Main Line layouts built by the Railnuts between 2023-2025.

These platform mounted versions also feature on Key Model World/Hornby Magazine's extension of East Coast Cement. Watch the full series here.

The kit includes three sets of parts to build platform mounted cantilever catenary gantries as well as a jig for assembly of registration arms. Brass rod and 3D printed insulators are also included to allow modellers to create realistic and functional gantries. The design allows for tensioning of the wire with the registration arms being suitable for use with Peco overhead contact wires.

In order to build the kits you will need superglue to assemble the gantries together with a soldering iron to build registration arms using the supplied materials in the pack.

Instructions are provided in the kit. Look out for a full step by step modelling guide on Key Model World and in Hornby Magazine together with further catenary gantry products from PJM Models.
