David Todd Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Moorings, Belated,........" Hello" I "go by" my initials of "dt". I have been a member since 2008, then "ferries 2008". Data base changed,then became "ferriesdover" in 2011. For 30 odd years, I have thought of building a model,a "likeness",of the town's railway, I have lived around and in for 35 years. I have no connection with railways, the sea has been my life, from cruise ships to ferries and enjoyed it immensely . Now, in retirement, I did not return to my roots,in Wallsend,in the NE of England................ I may, be able to get on with it. I know, from reading some of the members posts, over the year's that some of you have,"worked Dover and it's environs"........... I would be obliged, to those who may be tempted to post comment,such as........ "that's,not how it is/was","that should be there and not there". After all, it is in the space I have available to me and had to take modeling licence............. Most of it has been done by eye and photographs,I have taken. There is no computer generated diagram. The first b/boards were laid 5. years ago, in my infern internal garage, but, only started track laying, 18 months ago. Hopefully, by the week-end, my threadmill, will have been,split into 4 separate threads, covering the areas' of Dover I am modeling. Please note,my signature,for some sort of guidance. My thanks to those of you who have,taken an interest and viewed/posted so far,since I have made RMweb,more of a permanent home and started my thread of http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/74740-dover-priory-dover-town-yard-dover-marine/ on the 7th August,this year.
