RMweb Gold Popular Post Rowsley17D Posted April 1, 2021 RMweb Gold Popular Post Share Posted April 1, 2021 Busy morning at Derwent Spa. The Millers Dale shuttle has just arrived in platform 3 - far left and once sister 1P 1421 has left for Manchester Central, will run to that platform ready for the next departure to the junction. Before that, Derby's 2P 693 will set off with an all-stations to her home town. 30 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Jeff - Will you also be building a photographers gallery, wet weather Hut, near one end of the viaduct. (As in the proto pic)? You have also reminded me it's about time I nagged Mrs MB into some more walling. All the best TONY 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Physicsman Posted April 1, 2021 RMweb Premium Share Posted April 1, 2021 Tony, I'll give a more detailed answer - when I can find my derelict model hut from 2013 - on Gill Head tomorrow, so I don't block up this thread. Simple answer, "no" - lack of space, though I'd like to. Jeff 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broadoak Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 Mike, Yes I know what you mean they are often so dirty you wouldn’t be able to see out of the cab windows. I had a video of Tehachapi loop and in the middle of a set of SP mid train helpers is a UP loco that is the same colour as the SP tunnel motors, covered in soot. I presume you don’t see that now I assume with more modern power meaning less locos, I can’t say I have seen any recently made films. Kind regards Peter M Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
