  1. On page 167 of Mac Hawkins Then & Now book, there is a 1936 map. That is the sort of map i need but late 50's - early 70's.
  2. The period Chris is the late 50's until the closure. Of all the books i have, i noticed that most are free hand drawings of the area. I think it was Mac Hawkins book or the C.R. Potts book have good maps but not the best. I'll keep looking
  3. That's him, Lord Downes, the Baron of Blandford Forum. Bless him
  4. I tried modelling the station. I looked at the photo's & spent ages counting the bricks !!!! Somewhere, i still have the photos of BG. It's still my intention to build BG but i.m struggling to find the correct track plan as the ones i have seen don't match up. Bill Coomers book is fantastic. It's a great shame that the photo's in the book are not clearer. I wonder if Bill is still alive ?
  5. Not Bob ..........? I use to work with him years ago before he retired. He was the last S & D signalman if i remember rightly.
  6. Does Mrs Kernow know that the Captains sausage is this BIG ?
  7. And on that note Mr Kernow................ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPRhV9hAv9U
  8. More of superb Tipham layout. And this fantastic N gauge layout all the way from Oz...... Newgate lane.......... I'm sorry everyone but they are not the best photos but at least you can see what was there. I'm sure someone will put much better photo's up for you all to enjoy. andy
  9. I'm so sorry to whom bought this great layout, i can't remember the name of it, sorry. A general look at one of the rooms at Taunton......
  10. BIG thank you to Mr & Mrs Kernow, Andy Y, the pastie staff for their catering. Also, a thank you to all whom bought their layouts, they were all splendid. For me personally, i thought Tipham was superb & Simon's Hobbit railway was fantastic. It was nice to meet everyone today. Thank you all.
  11. I need permission please to bring, i hope, my kit bashed 07 shunter for any poor soul whom wishes to view it ? As some of you probably noticed a few weeks ago on here, my 07 shunter body melted, so, i got up off my posterior & did another one. I have still stuck to building a dual braked 07 shunter. It's not brilliant but it is not a total pile of poo. andy
  12. Take a look at this.............. http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x7v0kg_bailey-gate_tech?from_related=related.page.int.meta2-only.38cdb9ed3bf32b6149b95d06d85b7691138937211
  13. I purchased from hattons a Bachmann 39-777 LMS 50ft Inspection Saloon BR blue & grey for £42.50. Great service from their shop but alas, yodel have lost the parcel ! Hattons are looking into it but i am unsurethat if they claim from yodel for loss of parcel, will hattons do you think charge me £50 + or will they honour the £42.50 i already paid for it do you think ? It will be interesting to know
  14. Is this any good ? This class 47's number is unknown.
