I'm looking for a curved mainline railway viaduct (double lines) for a country scene.

Something like this:


I'd prefer plaster or resin to card. Any ideas?

And also, some curved railway arches for a city/industrial scene like this:


I have built up a flat railway arch mould from a kit and plastic brick sheets that I can use to cast some plaster mouldings, but to get it on a curve, perhaps I could bend it on a form whilst drying. It may deform the bricks and arches though. Any advice would be appreciated. The radius of the curve is about 85cm.

Thanks for the ideas guys. Richard, If you can spare a 4' section, please send it. It seems you have too much anyway


For the viaduct, I have some of those Skaledale arches, but they don't even line up straight. I'll be building something then I suppose.

I'll try and cast my city arches flat and see how they turn out/ Perhaps I could remove the parapet wall and add a curved one afterwards.
