Goods train Blandford


Recommended Posts

  • 4 months later...

After a winter break I have started on Blandford again. Been soldering drop wires and laying more track to the South of the station. Going to start powering up tomorrow to begin test running, going to be lots of problems to sort out I'm sure. Better to rebuild anything now rather than later.

 

This is looking south with the horse box siding to the left, entry to the goods shed, up and down platform tracks and the coal siding to the right near the station building.

Coal siding with catch point.

Also started on Salisbury road bridge.

Modelled the buffer stop on the one currently preserved by the iron bridge / beginning of the trailway today.

Thanks for looking.

Off on another photography trip to Dorset next week, thought I would post up another from last year's trip.

Wonderful brickwork on this one, just north of Gains Cross.

So many of these structures remain well-preserved, a delight to see.

Waiting for the loft to warm up and looking forward to start modelling again.

 

The next part I want to crack on with is Salisbury street bridge and the embankments leading up to it. Took some photos last summer as a guide.
