RMweb Gold TravisM Posted November 28, 2014 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 28, 2014 Has anyone got plans or diagrams of Neasden steam shed? I am kicking myself as I could have got loads of photographs of it when I worked for LT in the late 70's, early 80's. Julian Sprott Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
L49 Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 There is a floor plan in 'The Red Panniers', and loads of really nice atmospheric interiors as well. IIRC there is a chapter or at least part of a chapter devoted the Neasden steam shed. I don't know what the book retails at now, but it is well worth getting for loads of photos of interesting locations. Since getting a copy, I have planned about 6 layouts, none of which will probably ever get built! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xerces Fobe2 Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 I would suggest that you contact Brian Hardy the author and well repected authority on the London Underground. The best way to do this is to visit/join the District Dave forum which Brian is a contributor to. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Laird Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 I once attempted to subscribe to the District Dave forum. It started well, but then reached a stage where you had almost to provide a CV and references. I just thought, 'Oh, blow it'. It's a good forum, but there are golf clubs that are easier to join.

RMweb Premium PhilJ W Posted December 5, 2014 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 5, 2014 I've never had a problem either, but since I joined there have been problems with certain now ex-members and they are now more cautious. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Laird Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 I've never had a problem either, but since I joined there have been problems with certain now ex-members and they are now more cautious. Maybe that is why they have introduced these rather irksome and slightly intrusive hurdles. Those who joined of old probably did not experience it. The downside is that it might put people off joining. It did me. It does tend to give the impression of being a rather exclusive and unfriendly club. As I say, it is an interesting site, but the throughput of the forum is somewhat slow. Maybe there is a reason for this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
