High Fidelity dust free light grey limestone analogue. Satisfying requirements for exacting detail and the ability to create "sans frontier".
Developed and Manufactured in the UK.

Primary Colour and Source:
Light grey limestone comparable to products originating from Pennine and South Wales quarries. Formerly used as a flux in blast furnaces from Port Talbot to Middlesbrough and Southern Scotland, but now seen as a major component of base course asphalts and cement manufacture.

Actual Grain Size: 1.0-2.0mm (A larger grain size than our dark grey limestone analogue)
High Fidelity Analogue at OO/HO Gauge to real life 75-50mm rail crushed stone. This chunky crushed limestone would have been transported in vast amounts to satisfy the requirements of UK's Iron and Steel industry. Limestone is also used in glass and chemical manufacture.


Pack size: 4kg

Description:
Seize the opportunity afforded by the exacting detail that defines the ultra realism of our lightweight light grey limestone analogue.

Our analogue aggregates not only add authenticity to model landscapes but become a critical element in the historical commentary. With all our analogue aggregate products we pay meticulous attention throughout our unique manufacturing process to ensure that the product you receive is free from dust and true to scale, thus allowing you to create without compromise and providing you with natural materials to create a sensory experience that transcends the miniature scale.

Our limestone incorporates natural pumice, thus reducing weight.

Enhance the aesthetic appeal of your model landscapes and impress fellow enthusiasts with the attention to detail that sets your layout apart. Browse our full range of analogue options and transform your model scenic into a breathtaking masterpiece. Unleash your imagination and let your creativity flow!

Using Model Railway Nomenclature, Applications for Light Grey Limestone Analogue Include.
Real Life Examples rounded to nearest actual quarried sizes.

Z Scale (1:220): Real life 250 to 500mm broken stone, ie boulders in a size 100 to 400kg- Often referred to in the construction industry as "rip-rap" or stone scree. Use for modelling at small scale, river revetment, and drainage schemes.

N Scale (1:148): Real life 150-300mm broken stone. ie boulders in a size 20 to 100kg -
TT Scale (1:120): Real life 75-250mm exploded concrete, fragmented stone pieces in a range of sizes from 20 to 100kg.

OO/HO Scale (1:76): Real Life 75-150mm cobbles
Our graded lightweight light grey limestone analogue has the perfect scale size and texture for model railway wagon and tender fill at OO/HO scale.

The lightweight nature of our analogue reduces the filled wagon weight without compromising realism.

O Scale (1:43): Real Life 40-75mm crushed stone - Except for hidden backfill to structures, not a common size of stone used in the UK construction industry. However, our light grey limestone analogue can be effectively used at this scale to provide for a textured matt grey base for film and image sets and gaming scenics.

G Scale (1:22): Real Life 20-40mm aggregate. Typically in the real world the size of aggregates used for land drainage, however, our analogue provides for textural ground cover for large scale film and image karst-scapes and gaming dioramas.

Colour & Form:
We take great care to provide accurate images, however, shade variations can occur both with the products themselves and with ambient lighting.

When used for modelling, perceived variance to colour and reflectance can occur due to base materials and adhesives used.

It can be difficult to adequately describe and visualise grain size, we do, however, show products in context with additional images.

Delivery:
This product option is packed in a secure weatherproof pack.
Delivery is either by post, national or international couriers. Our checkout allows for you to advise us of any delivery requirements or concerns you may have.
