THE RICHELIEU DEPOT
Micro network, Micro deposit...
This network was also designed to be presented in an exhibition at Ramma (SEDAN). The theme of the time was "train and cinema". What could be better than to present the railway "Cinnecita" that was Richelieu... By far a record holder for film, television film or commercial shootings, it happened that there were three filmings in the same year... Annihilated by the CG37, this tourist train, one of the oldest in France, was massacred with the kind help of the Richelais... Note that certain tourist networks were eager to recover valuable material... But it was also a OFP (Local Rail Operator) before its time which operated heavy trains on lines abandoned by the national network...
​
I wanted to pay homage in my own way to this network by creating this small network on a scale that is nevertheless exploitable (a little...). Made on an extruded polystyrene plate, it uses many parts designed by me and printed in 3D (more than 100!)
