58086 on a cold but sunny snowy morning in 1957 awaits with the 11am service from Combwich to Evercreech Junction.

 

People who know me know that I'm not one to be taken for a ride by cottage scenic manufacturers passing off household products as bespoke items for model railways, then charging 1500% over the odds for sticking it in a small clear bag and a trashy photocopy. OK rant over, the snow is cream of tartar, something that you will probably have in your larder with a sell by date of March 1993. And oh yes it vacuumed off fully after taking a few snaps is is now July once again.

Hi Chris,

That looks great,B) I might have to try that. It would make a good Christmas card pic.

 

Cheers Peter.

Hmm. I've got some small clear bags. I'll have to sort out a trashy photocopier and set up in business :rolleyes:

Chris that really does look amazing - I feel 10 degrees colder looking at the pic!

 

One tiny quibble-ete - the footprints look good, but there's no tyre tracks :P Did the photographer park up the night before then get snowed in....? ;)
