Model Railway Foot Bridge 3D print model

On a visit to North Wales, I visited the Ffestiniog & Welsh Highland Railway and spotted this bridge going over the railway line a couple of times and thought it would be a good design to add to my collection.

This bridge could be used for a footpath over a railway, river, or something similar.

I thought about doing this with some steps but every model railway is different so decided only to do the bridge.

The model is designed at an OO scale 1/76 scale and is 120mm long by about 26mm wide. This is a detailed item that is best suited to resin printing.

designed at OO gauge, 1/76.2 scale but can easily be scaled for other gauges.for HO gauge print at 87%, 1/87 Scale,for O gauge UK at 175%, 1/43.5 Scale,for O gauge International print at 158%, 1/48 Scale,for N gauge print at 51.49%, 1/148 Scale, (Caution: I have not printed this model in N gauge so can’t guarantee its printability)

The examples in the pictures were printed on an AnyCubic Proton 3D resin printer.I recommend printing this item on a 3D resin printer to get the best print definition. As normal with my designs, there is a balance between accuracy and printability, hopefully not affecting the look of the model too much. This design was especially difficult to get a balance between accuracy and printability.

The main resins I use for printing can be found with my affiliated links below.I use AnyCubic Water Washable Resin for most of my items but use AnyCubic ABS Like Resin for anything that needs to be stronger and tougher.
