Eggesford box Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Hi, I am thinking of making a model of the station building at Dornoch for a small, relatively quicke Scottish terminus. No pretensions to great accuracy, just trying to get the general character of the building. Looking at photographs has raised a few questions:- Does anyone have any details of the recessed portion of the main building facing the platform? Was there an entrance on the forecourt elevation? There is a set of window that look possible but whether they are the glazed portion of double doors is unclear since the lower half of the building is painted a dark colour and from a low res photo the detail is not clear. They could just as easily be just windows. Any other info on the building gratefully recieved. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest stuartp Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 I can't help with the platform side but try this: http://canmore.rcahm...mages/l/435303/ That was taken post closure but there are more (unscanned) photos in the NAS listed on Scotland's Places: http://www.scotlands...HRlcj1zdGF0aW9u More recent pics here: http://www.railbrit.co.uk/location.php?loc=Dornoch Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

McW Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Hi A number of photo's from the Highland Railway Society can be found here - www.ambaile.org.uk Search Dornoch Station. Mainly general view pictures of the station area rather than the station building but still interesting. Regards Paul B Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eggesford box Posted February 10, 2012 Author Share Posted February 10, 2012 Hi, thanks for all your help. Have started making drawings of the building.Obviously, much will be conjecture and 'guesstimation' from photographs. Will post them here when done (that will force me to complete them!)
