Me again, Trying to source a platform mounted footbridge kit for a GER station. I think I found one from Gibson; their etched footbridge kit, (Mainly Trains GI4MM091 (Gibson) MR Etched Footbridge Kit) looks remarkably similar to the bridge in my photos - minus the roof. Was it usual for different regions to have such similar designs ??
The kit will probably need to be modified slightly as the bridge is mounted on the platform and I read somewhere that most kits are too high (ie designed to sit on the ground). The bridge columns also straddle a wall at the back of the platform - maybe the bridge was an afterthought !
Anyway, this'll be my first brass kit so I am looking forward to building it. I assume low-melt solder and appropriate flux is the norm with these kits?? Also I'd appreciate any 'gotchas' from anyone who may have built this kit already.
Cheers Mal Oz (For anyone who is curious, I am attempting to build the old Haverhill (GER) station on the old Colne Valley line)
