Corby Bridge
This model is an attempt to capture the Newcastle and Carlisle railway at Wetheral, where it crossed the river Eden on a magnificent stone viaduct (Corby Bridge) before rounding the tightly curved station towards Carlisle. The double track circuit is more or less complete and now - slowly - the scenery can begin. The centre-piece is the bespoke viaduct, made by creating a Powerpoint file of the complex stonework and having various sections cut and etched by York Modelmaking, before assembly. It needs some weathering but the photo shows the jist! The trackwork - largely Peco bullhead - is currently being painted prior to ballasting. I'll be updating progress as I continue the journey so happy to receive any feedback!
