New Tunnel Portal at Signor's
Author: dmaffei

First off, a shout out to TO member TCnR for finding these guys at XYZ CREATIVE https://www.zyxcreative.com Portals are modeled after tunnels in Tehachapi CA. Has anyone used them?
Thinking about contacting them for making bridge piers on Rick's Redding layout for this bridge he's doing at tunnel 11

Just saw the new portals installed tonight, look great. Definitely would like some Dunsmuir area bridge support pieces in N. The XYZ SP booths are very nice too.

Bookmarked the vendor for the portals.  D&RGW seemed to have mostly poured concete portals too so these migh be suitable for me.

It would be interesting to see a before/after comparson on Signor's layout.  I've always enjoyed anything featured from Signor's layout being and SP fan of the 70's.

Cheers, Jim

They have a brief segment about ZYXCreations on Ken Patterson's 'What's Neat this Week'. They say more info in later episodes. The original advertisement was in MRH the online magazine.
