Pro-Line adds realism with concrete 1:10 K-Rail

Pro-Line have introduced the True Scale concrete 1/10th K-Rail. Adding realism to any scale scene the K-Rails are good for the use as chicanes for off-road racing, race borders and obstacles for drifting, start and finish line borders for rock racing and rock crawling events, scale construction scene objects and borders, scale freeway dividers, or as a great way to display scale RC models. These K-rails will add an instant sense of scale dimension to any application. As a true-scale representation of the full size K-Rails they are made of real concrete and reinforced with steel rebar. They are easily paintable to fit right into any scene, be it stark white with high visibility for a race or construction scene, or to take it underground by adding street art or graffiti.
