Many thanks for that last selection of views of Bridport. I particularly like these small corners of the layout, the bits that go together to make it such a pleasing whole without their being cutesy and contrived. These cameos are worthy of being modelled in their own right, and v evocative. The one of the guard's van between the stone building and the transfer shed is my favourite. It makes me think of the limited views of such a railway one might have had as a kid, hinting at the yard, locos and other vehicles that lie just out of view, the long grass suggesting that this is an unused nook, but beyond there are shinier rails, oily ballast and a whiff of steam. I have a dim childhood memory of a Drewry and some vans standing seemingly abandoned in the grass on the Wisbech & Upwell - I had the sense that although looking as if it would never move, any moment the crew would appear and silence would give way to engine noise, rattling of couplings, squeal of flanges and slow movement. And the image of the transfer shed is, in my opinion, quite as fine, hints of Welshpool and Halesworth, and a suggestion of bustle and labour temporarily suspended while tea is brewed somewhere else. As Ohmisterporter says, 'keep em coming'!
