A little progress on the passenger ramp structures over the last couple of days. The front one has had a quick coat of primer and needs painting while the one behind still requires the Redutex tiling added to the sloping sections. Both require the internal slopes up to the platform level made and fitted. The upright 'H' section girders will support cross member beams that are part of the canopy structures - yet to be started. But nothing is likely to be done today being my birthday and the usual Friday afternoon session in the local. Cheers.

And a quick snap of them in temporarily place (under better lighting);

A little progress was made yesterday and today on the mysterious platform 7 and 8 which are on the lower level as terminus lines but are outside the trainshed. Platform 7, which was a bay, disappeared when the through non-stop non-platform line was added next to platform 6 (on the high level) effectively fouling the entrance to the bay. However it'll all be hidden behind the trainshed wall or under the huge forecourt canopy - neither of which I've yet started on - and the Southwark Towers block. The black marked lines (lower right corner) in the pic below show the rough extent of the trainshed. The centre lower section is where the canopy will be;

Here's the end of platform 7/8, which I've yet to make, taken in 2009 and the end pier/column of the trainshed wall:
