Oh, that'a great! A Jinty would be easy to acquire, i'm curious though; you mentioned Pannier Tanks, (presumably a Collett 57xx), so i'm assuming they would be transferred from other regions right? I would assume that given the location, i'd be more inclined to find ex-LNER stock in the area (plus, I do recall seeing photos of LNER locomotives in the book) Do you have any idea on coaching stock? I was just thinking of getting an old, cheap Dapol Stanier coach! Thank you for mentioning goods traffic, I plan on depicting a branch line that featured a line running up to ironstone workings. I've already been reading up on areas such as Corby, and the Nassington Quarry. Also, I recall a alyout featured in a magazine, 'Eppingham' I believe it was called?

Hello guys, I was wondering if you could help me out with a little project. I've bought the East Midlands Branch Line Album By Anthony J. Lambert, and I want to know if there are any examples of singl coach operations on BR Midland Region branch lines? If so, what would be suitable stock for a hypothetical layout?

I want to be able to necessitate a mixture, so if Eastern Region locomotives appeared (or any other region's stock), that'd be great. I've ordered a book on East Midlands Branchline so I will start my research there. Yeah, I'm happy that there's a great deal of RTR Stock. I'm going to start thinking about Coaching stock next. Also I'm berry aware of the Rocks by Rail Museum! I'm doing research on it along with the Northampton Ironstone Railway.

Thanks lads, I'll do some research and keep you posted!

Im trying to compile data in order to plan ideas for a Branch line set in the East Midlands during the 1950/60 era. I've fictitiously set it somewhere within the Leicester/Rutland area. As such I expect to include an industrial segment to a fictional ironstone quarry pasy the terminus of the line. I need help with compiling a list of locomotives/motive power depots around the area, as well as ideas for industrial locomotives

where did you find the modern image cars?
