derek Posted March 10 Author Share Posted March 10 My ol footbridge leaves a lot to be desired. It really is the definition of scratch built. (more scrap built). The framework is pieces of red deal (pine), the mesh is just that- plasterers angle bead, and the handrails are insulation from electric cable. Made years ago when I thought one could get away with stuff like that. In other words, before I saw the standard of modelling on here. The sooner @RobertRoche s footbridge becomes available the better, as far as I am concerned 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galteemore Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 For a scratch built 4mm effort, that’s pretty good going. Some nice finishing of newel posts etc. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

derek Posted April 15 Author Share Posted April 15 With the recent arrival of some brown cement wagons from Leslie, this train is fast becoming the @leslie10646 special. When I finally get around to assembling the two cattle wagons and the brake van I also got from him, it will really complete the picture. Those wagons of his are superb. 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
