Afew more prototype photos...
The standard passenger trains between Shrewsbury and Stafford consisted of 3 ex LMS corridor coaches pulled by Staffords 2-6-4 tanks of both Fowler and Fairburn varieties or Shrewsburys Jubilees, Black 5s or Stndard 5s.
Here 42176 is seen with a nice set of ex LMS coaches. I am fortunte that I have a set of coaches built by Grahame Varley to replicate this train.
However photos show these trains sometimes with different coaches and in a video clip taken at Shrewsbury the train is made up of a newly repainted Gresley articulated set of coaches.
The second photo shows a Stafford train at Wellingtonwith 42542 in 1964 with horse boxes and this has given me the excuse to convert one of the recent Hornby models.
The last photo is of one of Staffords G2s 49410 at Wellington and I have recently converted one of the excellent Bachmann models.
