LATTICE FOOTBRIDGE

This is based on a footbridge at Havant (SR) level crossing near Portsmouth.

It is a design which is found all over the British mainland.  The height was intended for use on platforms, where they where used at track level a plinth was built to stand the main structure upon with additional steps built from brick or timber.

The model has all lattice work etched in brass sheet showing the thickness and rivets at the points where the strips cross. Smoke deflectors are provided with adjustment to allow alignment to the track below.

CYLINDRICAL WATER TOWER AND CRANE

This model is based on the GWR tower which was to be found elsewhere particularly in the BR days.  The height is correct for platform mounting.  Away from the platform is was mounted on a plinth.  It has a central pipe which runs through the main column which can be used to refill the tank.  The crane arm is fitted with water seals which allows it to be swung out to the loco.  The valve is opened by a gentle pull on the chain hanging at the side, allowing the water to run out through the real leather ‘bag’, just like the real thing.  There is also a drain grating and brich surround to catch the scale drips!  Construction is by soft solder and adhesives.  The difficult bit is rolling the conical tower and the drum, this can be done for you at an extra charge.  For more detail pictures click main photograph.
