The Rather Splendid Station Footbridge You've Been Searching For
Right, so here's the thing. You've got your model railway layout all sorted, platforms are looking marvellous, but something's missing. A proper footbridge, naturally. This beautifully crafted lattice iron structure does exactly that, and does it rather well. Inspired by the genuine Gainsborough Station footbridge, it's the sort of thing that makes model enthusiasts nod approvingly whilst sipping their tea.
Why Choose Our Platform Footbridge
Gloriously Modular Design: One kit spans your standard two-track line perfectly. But if you're feeling ambitious (and honestly, who isn't), you can link multiple kits together to create something even more impressive. The staircases swivel between perpendicular and in-line positions, so you're not locked into anything.
Proper Period Authenticity: Works across UK railway eras 3 through 11, meaning whether you're recreating the Edwardian era or the modern day, this footbridge fits right in.
Thoughtfully Designed Assembly: Clear guidance throughout. Clearances are built in to help you assemble without the usual cursing and minor hand injuries that come with model building. Do give the instructions a proper read and dry assemble first though, just to be safe.
Product Details
What You're Getting: One unpainted, unassembled resin kit. It arrives ready for your creative touch with acrylic or enamel paints. A spot of sanding and filling may be required, but that's rather part of the charm, isn't it.
Finish Your Footbridge: This is unfinished because we reckon you know what colour your railway should be better than we do.
Dispatch: Your footbridge kit ships within 7 working days via Royal Mail, whether you're down the road or across the continent.
Scale and Fit: O scale, standard platform clearances included. Detail may vary slightly depending on the specific size you've ordered.
Rather good for those of us who take our model railways seriously. Treat yourself to a footbridge that's worthy of the rest of your layout.
Caution: Contains small parts. Choking hazard. Not suitable for children under 14. For adult collectors only.

We Have Lots More Like This.........
Hello, we are Sostter....
Sostter began, as all good ideas do, with a lively conversation and a shared sense of frustration. Why had the world of independent design become so serious, so samey, so… beige? Where was the spark, the imagination, the sheer joy of discovering something that made you stop and stare?
We dreamt of a marketplace that celebrated difference — where curious minds could explore a world of independent brands, design-led makers, and thoughtful artisans. A space that felt exciting, human, and beautifully imperfect.
Today, Sostter brings together remarkable people and their creations — from London to Lausanne, Brooklyn to Berlin — uniting makers and discoverers through craftsmanship, creativity, and conscience. Every object tells a story, and every purchase supports an independent brand doing things differently.
This is just the beginning. But enough about us — step inside, explore our world, and see what catches your imagination.
Giving Back
We’re proud to support Sutton Night Watch, a grassroots UK charity making a real difference in the lives of those facing homelessness. Through regular donations of stock, supplies, and essentials, we back their mission to offer warmth, dignity, and practical help to anyone in need — right where it matters most.
