oo Scale Footbridge
Thomas asks readers:
“Where can I get a footbridge which will span more than two tracks?”

have a look at the “Hornby” website.
HI Thomas If you are modelling oo gauge I presume you are modelleing British , so try kit bashing with a couple of Dapol footbridge kits.
The ‘main’ line (ex-GC/GW joint line)is two-track throughout, with passing loops presently sited only at Princes Risborough (NB) and West Ruislip (SB).Evergreen 2 (Chiltern’s second instalment of their investment programme under their franchise terms) delivered extra infill signalling (to reduce headway), as well as the headline extra two platforms at Marylebone. As a result, twenty paths per hour are available in each direction to Neasden, of which fifteen or so are available up the ‘main’ line. Given the service Chiltern and WSMR currently operate on this line a ‘bottleneck’, as you term it, is unlikely to occur just because a platform is built across the trackbed at Denham.THC
Just Google OO footbridge. Ratio, Hornby, Dapol all come up.
I would suggest trying scalescenes.com who produce downloadable printed plans which are then stuck onto card, cut out and assembled. They do a footbridge which can be adjusted to any number of tracks and available in various building material styles. By the way they are available in OO, HO and N gauge and easily adjusted for other scales.
