I wouldn't have called the Ox weird, John Entwhistle, or Jack Bruce for that matter. The proprietor of the Model Shop in Exeter is a bass player.

Being pedantic, Rob, Unless the GWR had a fundamentally different arrangement for describing its trains, your lovely little loco and B set appears to be a 'pick-up goods'. I'd say that's weird! I do enjoy this layout thread. Unlike on my own trainset, it would appear that everything in/on it is all your own work. I commend you. Regards, Tony.

I shall change it immediately if not sooner. 1 5 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Siberian Snooper Posted September 10, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted September 10, 2019 Sorry to disillusion you, but if you Google warickshire railways.com and click on the Misc tab you should find the list which covers from 1914 to 1936 or Google GW loco lamp positions for later than that. Auto coaches didn't have brackets to display proper lamp codes and so used the lower position. Not able to do the links, sorry. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Siberian Snooper Posted September 11, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted September 11, 2019 No excuses now for having the wrong lamps, with the two above posts that cover most of the GW "narrow gauge" period. and I don't think there was much change in the BR(W) period until the buzz boxes got the high intensity headlight(s).
