I became fascinated by KGB (Kerb Guided Busway) after seeing Simon's footage of a trolleybus sharing an underground station with trams. The virtue of KGB is that it is cheap to build and maintain, compared with tramway, and because it uses regurlar buses the buses can leave the guideway and use ordinary streets at any time.
I wanted to model this system to completment my fictitious town of Porton's trolleybus and tram systems (4mm - OO scale), and so take Essen as my inspiration. Even in the model world KGB is easy to make - the test oval took just under an hour from scratch and the joint tram/bus section just 20 minutes. The plan is to recreate an automated layout of the Porscheplatz station and show trolleybuses running in ordinary streets (Faller guide system), on KGB solely and finally going underground using KGB sharing a station with trams.
