LaScala Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Took this yesterday at a fellow club member railway room who is building a model of High Wycombe station circa 1957, I need to revisit the shot to get focus and depth of field correct but I do think it does have the feel of the real location. David Instantly recognised as H-W, not least because I was born there the year before. This could be be one bridge that does need a traffic jam on it coming down the hill: a green LT RT double decker on the 363 from Amersham perhaps?

coachmann Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 Having just played catch-up looking through dozens of pages, 31A's Cravens DMU on a murky night does it for me as the most realistic model, or should I say photo. Even allowing for what friend Jim s-w describes as a UFO in the background, I was hard put to find any detail that said it was a model. The driver looks utterly lifelike as does the DMU glazing. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandhills Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Cactustrain - I'll get my coat, thats superb, not a single thing says 'model'. For those who like a bit of sound & movement with their realistic image, come and stand infront of the shed doors at Eastfield for 2 mins.............. (extra 10 points to anyone that spots the lens cap on this one, ooooops !) 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The film you are using gives an excellent olde days gone colour film look. The picture reminds me of some of the late 1970s shots I've seen of shunters parked up on the MSC system at the weekend.

Baby Deltic Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Pug 51207 works the yard at Harford Street. Its 1952, and 51207 is on loan to Devons Road whilst the locomotive usually rostered to work Bromley Gasworks is under repair. Two Pug's were transferred to London that year, 51207 having come from Goole. By 1953 it was back up north. Black and white tint: 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
