I've started work on scratchbuilding a model of a small brick farm access underbridge, which is located on the north (London) side of the Ouse Valley Viaduct. I will be assisting Rod (10800), John (Re6/6) and a couple of Rod's colleagues from the Eridge project at Scaleforum in a couple of weeks time, demonstrating on the theme of B.R. Southern Region. My contribution to all of this, besides helping run trains up and down the viaduct, (no doubt), will be to continue construction of this farm bridge, which will be incorporated in the first part of this huge project, the viaduct itself. I may also be working on one of the smaller buildings on the platform at Balcombe station, depending on time etc.

After getting to a 'natural break' with Callow Lane goods shed, I started work on the farm bridge today, so that I would have something to start demonstrating on at Scaleforum.

Here is the prototype:

Here is the limited progress I've made so far - both elevations of the arch cut out, and the four course of edging bricks attached (Slaters brick cut into strips):

I plan to have more done before we go up to Scaleforum.
