A favour to ask of someone in the Dutton area

[speedypete202]

Hello,

 

I hope this is in the right place and is allowed,

 

I am currently working on a project and part of this is recreating Dutton railway viaduct for a simulation product. Sadly I cannot seem to find any good photos of the brickwork. Would anyone in that area be able / willing to get me some good pics of the brickwork? They would need to be reasonably close and square on. I appreciate that getting the arch work at the top is probably less possible but I am not as bothered about that. 

 

If anyone can help I would be very grateful,

 

Thanks

Try posting this in the history and heritage section, there are a number of railway buffs in there who I am sure would be willing to help you. Good luck with your research.

Google RAIB Safety Digest 18/2017 Dutton Viaduct. The report has a good aerial view of the viaduct.
