    Me and the boy went today and it was a great day out . A high standard of modelling layouts and trade and demos. Very friendly atmosphere,but I think the guy on the till at squires models has to be the nicest and most polite trader I’ve ever met .(he may be guy that owns it not sure ) had a great conversation with him about upcoming things from them great show Regards Brian

    Wentworth junction on the worsbrough branch was the home of the U1 garrett Monday to Friday it only went back to its parent shed mexbough at the weekends I believe wentworth junction was classed as a sub shed of mexbough even though there was no actual shed just a siding and water tower the banking locos getting their coal from the nearby wentworth silkstone colliery by using their loading shute

    Just having a thought with the workings were changed to be tripped to wath and I think diesel hauled after the 1971 crash and my uncle only starting to take photos around early 70’s I’d say the picture is 1971/72 just before the crash Regards Brian

    I don’t unfortunately my uncle very rarely dated owt all the pictures he took are from 70’s onwards Ive only ever seen pictures of it with a disk I will ask around and see if I can find out when it was changed what’s the date of the picture you have with the two miniature arms ? Here’s another one of my late uncle’s pictures from the 70’s regards Brian
