Down the line on the Bristol & North Somerset

First bridge South from Clutton is Marsh Lane, seen here in 1976. Now destroyed. I have tried to model this. |

Marsh Lane Bridge looking North in 1976, the Up fixed distant was on the left, I do have a picture of the stump, but decided against putting it on here. |
|
What amazes me is how clear it all looked back then, this is the main line in 1976, only 6 years after the track had been removed. It doesn't look like this now. |

This was an occupation bridge between Clutton and Hallatrow. According to aerial photos, this bridge is now destroyed. (1976) |

Next stop is Hallatrow, and this model
is being built
by Dave Keeler as part on the 18.83 challenge for the Scalefour
Society. I leant him an old model of the station building, and a
signal box for Scaleforum 2005.
