JTT Plastic Pattern Sheets for Railway Models

Explore JTT plastic pattern sheets for scratchbuilt railway structures, town surfaces and terrain projects. The catalog includes represented roofing, siding, masonry, paving, plate, rock and water patterns rather than complete buildings or ready-made railroad scenery modules.

Read the architectural ratio

Some JTT sheet products use a nominal railroad-scale label together with a printed architectural ratio. Use both pieces of information and compare the pattern to a door, figure or model structure. Do not substitute the usual railroad ratio for the ratio printed for the actual sheet.

Plan the surrounding railway scene

Try the named pattern on a small railway shed, workshop, warehouse or background building that suits your chosen setting. A surface pattern can help distinguish one building from the next without changing the whole track plan. Make a paper template for the panel before working with the actual sheet. Plan the direction of the pattern, visible joints and the relationship to doors, windows and roof edges. Compare a sample against the structure before repeating the treatment across several buildings.

Can this pattern sheet be used for scratchbuilt railway buildings?

Use the printed ratio and visible pattern size to judge the intended building. Plan the structure and supports separately, and test cutting, adhesive and finish on a spare piece using products appropriate for the listed material.
