Tim V Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Welford Park in 1975, a very cold Captain Kernow on the left, and my Morris Minor with a useless heater. Oh, just remembered - the line had been closed by this point. 11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeWL Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Nice photo. Unusual for a Moggie to have a duff heater. I could have toasted crumpets on mine... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

peanuts Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 why is the bracket signal at Towyn on the wrong side or is it for a shunt to behind the photographer ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Regularity Posted May 10, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 10, 2020 In theory, the signal would be placed between the up loop and the yard loop, but there isn’t sufficient space for the post. The main arm (taller post) is for exit from the loop to the main, taking the RH divergence, and the other arm is for continuing straight on whilst shunting. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
