Since
none of the commercially
available running boards in HO scale have a
prototyical three dimensional
effect of the actual features of the running boards,

I would disagree that the Kadee Appex Tri-Lok is a
good approximation in that it captures one very
important feature that the etched versions do not: the
"depth" of the grid work is greater dimensioanlly than
the width (thickness) of the grid work, just like on
the prototype. Because of this, it looks far better
than an etched metal Apex Tri-Lok running board.
