scratcher Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 Does anybody have access to the track plan for West Wycombe in the 1930s please? In the original edition of Stanley Jenkins book, it was one of the few track plans not included, and I've been unable to find it elsewhere.

RMweb Premium keefer Posted March 22, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 22, 2019 Closest detailed map on the NLS Maps site is the 1919 OS 25-inch, dont know if the layout had changed by the 1930s though https://maps.nls.uk/view/104183126#zoom=3&lat=6361&lon=12420&layers=BT 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Innerhome Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 Signalling Record Society has a box diagram - which matches the R A Cook track layout diagrams - section 26 book. Mr Cooke's sketch is 1907 - and shows no alterations until rationalisation starts in late 50's - so the SRS diagram should be fine. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As Innerhome correctly says, the layout was the same in the 1930s. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The low resolution image on the SRS website from 1949 is what I need. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoffrey Chaucer Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 Did you ever find photos of roadside front of platform building or the goods shed? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
St. Simon Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 Hi, You might want to contact the High Wycombe & District Model Railway Society, they are building a model of West Wycombe, so might have some info that you are looking for. Simon 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
