Hello

 

I'm planning a layout of Newton abbot station an depot in BR steam days an I'm still struggling to find out stuff about it. I'm lacking pictures! I've looked on google images an there's only a handful on there of any use! I've not got any real good photos of the engine shed area or coaling stage! I only live 10 mins from Newton abbot an luckily the carrage shed an workshop are still there but now used for other things! Any help ,pictures or advice would be great an very much appreciated.

 

Cheers Neil

Hello Neil

 

A book worth getting is: Scenes from the Past No.19 - Railways in and around Newton Abbot. (CR Potts - Foxline) I have a certain amount of other material that might help you - please feel free to PM me.
