4. The Carriage Shop - More Prototype Photo's
Work progresses slowly on the main baseboard, with the track cut to (rough) size - waiting a decision on the traverser! All of the baseboard surrounding the track and pits has been raised to (almost) rail level using 3.5mm cork. Pictures later in the week once I've more "features" to point out however in the interim;
The following couple of photographs were obtained from the original photographer (with thanks to Mr Barr) and were of particular interest to me having been taken around my time there - if perhaps a little earlier;
This first one shows the carriage shop taken from the rear of the area that I'm modelling, looking towards the Carriage Lift shop in the distance (keen observers will spot the E&G DMU vehicle I'm sure) - probably taken about 1972 ;
This second shows the Paint Shop Traverser (incorrectly labelled on the original photograph) and although I'm not modelling this one, I've included it show some of the production processes.
