LCUT_creative Posted July 24, 2017 Author Share Posted July 24, 2017 Looking forward to the arrival of the roof tiling strips (ordered this afternoon) and some other bits various for a small project I am fiddling about with. I am also loving the LSWR/SR platform mounted signal box kit: what a fantastic little model... 20170628_215846.jpg Beautifully thought out and a real pleasure to build. Even the bits I thought might prove tricky have been entirely painless; I just don't build very quickly, though I get there in the end. I have also been amazed at just how sturdy the structure, even in this partially completed state, is. I'm a bit torn now: cream and green (which is what it was purchased to be) or white with black trim and rather dirtier...hmmm..... A real winner: more quirky Southern Region stuff, ,please. Best wishes, Paul Hi Paul, Thank you very much! I am glad to hear you like it. Next structure for SR will be a footbridge of the type with brick plinths. Sadly it will not have a corrugated iron roof. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCUT_creative Posted July 24, 2017 Author Share Posted July 24, 2017 Hi, The footbridge looks great, is it actually based on a real one ? All the best, Martyn. Hi Martyn, Yes it is based on the footbridge in Bridgnorth. There are few very minor differences on the balustrades but its a very close representation.

LCUT_creative Posted July 24, 2017 Author Share Posted July 24, 2017 Morning all, My - beautifully packaged - parcel of bits arrived this morning safely, with everything in tact. The roofing slates are seriously impressive: they will save a lot of pain with paper and scissors. Fabulous service - thanks very much indeed! Onwards and upwards, Paul Hi Paul, Thank you for letting me know, glad it arrived safe. I am looking forward to hearing what you think of it when its all finished!

Grampus Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 Hi Paul, Thank you very much! I am glad to hear you like it. Next structure for SR will be a footbridge of the type with brick plinths. Sadly it will not have a corrugated iron roof. I shall look forward to that. Had a play with the roof slates this evening: first seven courses in place and all's well. It's actually curiously therapeutic and the visual improvement significant. Barring any operator-induced errors (tired eyes, fat fingers, red wine, etc) I will post an image once application is complete! Just a thought: any scope for some of the smaller Exmouth Junction Concrete Works pre-fabricated buildings? I am thinking of some of the slightly larger structures - yard buildings, small offices, etc, - rather than platelayers' huts, though the tool shed that usually accompanies the standard southern region platelayers' hut would be nice. Best wishes, Paul Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best wishes, Paul Hi Paul, I am glad to hear its going well! What I found that any errors tend to blend in/disappear once you paint it. At the moment we are not planning anything like that. We have talked about more modern image/concrete structures some time ago but I cannot say what will come out if just yet. We have made 2 concrete signal boxes for the Southern region while ago as a bespoke project so we do have some basic experience with it at least.

RMweb Gold Roy Langridge Posted September 27, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted September 27, 2017 What is it based off of? it looks good, but am wondering if it should be all concrete with concrete step sides? Looks a typical Southern bridge, just like the one we have at Ropley on the Mid-Hants. That is brick with wooden steps. Roy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roy Hi Roy, Thank you, yes that is based on the one in Ropley. We decided to make a slightly different one as there is quite a few concrete ones on the market already. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 This footbridge and the chimney have always been of interest to me. The footbridge is an unusual design, and location (being right before a tunnel). The chimney still exists. They're both located in Woolwich/Charlton.

LCUT_creative Posted October 9, 2017 Author Share Posted October 9, 2017 We are working on an Easter/LNER footbridge as well. It will be similar in style to the Epping Station Victorian footbridge.

LCUT_creative Posted October 9, 2017 Author Share Posted October 9, 2017 Thanks for sharing your forthcoming releases with us. Is there a 7mm Midland footbridge in the works? I'd have one as soon as it is released. Yes it will be released in a slightly narrower version but we will release span expansion packs to go with it. I have 2 other models to release in 7mm first (medium good shed and a double track engine shed) but we will be working on releasing all footbridges in 7mm soon.
