Dancess Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Hi, Has anyone info how trains were shunted / assembled at Bailey Gate. I have track plans, books etc but no details of which loops were used. Thanks in advance of any assistance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dancess Posted January 24, 2011 Author Share Posted January 24, 2011 Many thanks for the link. Just watched, HEAVEN!!!!!!!!!! Better get on with laying track now I know can fit in available space. Then there's only Standard Class 5s to build and 7F when it comes out. Am really glad of your help. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The link is now on my list of favourites. Those shunting types seemed to manage three-link couplings better than me. PB Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
