I could really do with a 4mm version of this - a conversion of a saddle tank version of a 1861 2-4-0 Geo England tender loco. - to shunt my Highbridge Wharf style project! http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/gallery/image/74223-sdjr-2-4-0t/

Seems like good topic. I don't think I have that many to offer but there's this one and a couple more from the Bluebell which I'll upload later.

Many thanks for your research. Phil

If there is a particular period or date you need details of, I can check Dad's loco spotting log books. Apart from living on the Bristol & Exeter mainline, he often went down to Exeter and we had a holiday in Dawlish one summer. You can see the sort of details he recorded on these pages. http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/gallery/album/4148-john-sutters-loco-logs-ref-bournemouth-services/

It just crossed my mind how impossible it will be to do a DIY repaint of some of the recent liveries, like the new SWR one with shaded stripes. Transfers mimicking the full-sized vinyls would be the only way I guess.

Now there's an idea for today's challenge - heritage and preservation workshops - including stock being worked on in the open - not just parked there. One by one of my grandsons this time

I just noticed that you were looking at tin sheds - this one was a subject of much debate in another thread - about which make and model it was. The telegraph pole is in the 'prototype for everything' class.

I am sure others can place this. It's from a negative with no indication of the date either. It continues the murk theme.

One-man operated version - the table is used mainly used as a sector plate.

You could try it at Alexandra Palace!

Thanks for your interest, Keith. I think that is probably the only set like that in Dad's photos. Bristol TM was the nearest big station when we lived in Somerset - in three different places, throughout most of the 50s, 60s & 70s, so Bath Road was the shed he saw most often.

Your link takes me up to the top of this page of the thread.

Inkpen were around in the 1980s (I think - or possibly earlier) They produced a range of ready-painted solid resin 1/72 British army vehicles. I believe that they were originally produced as identification training aids for the army. I had a whole set of the range at one time. When I looked today I only found these two MKs. You can see why I thought they were like your models, although I hadn't realised that yours were 1/152nd. (NB these are not in answer to the request for non-tracked vehicles, as they have never been used on a layout. They are from my military modelling phase, when I had no layout and did no railway modelling.)

Steam, between & oil-box era

Bridgwater S&D - one junction, one intermediate station, one halt and one terminus - oh and one cement works siding and a line to a wharf.

A glass of what ever takes your fancy - here's the menu - I think I'll have a nice 'thing whatsoever'! So good that even the 'Collector of tolls' is Lush. This is a reconstruction of the quayside notice.

One from Dad's albums, by his good friend Alan Newman. I have never had any copyright issues raised by any of Dad's fellow photographers, so I shall continue to share their work, while giving them their credits.

Will Bachman rush one out in the new livery? I trust they will seriously weather the chassis and polish the body. Yes, I know their recent offering is a 444 not a 450.

I don't think that this photo would have got a look-in for any other reason so here is its little bit of limelight!

I was joking, but it just had a lot more character to it than many listed buildings and a good number of them were listed when they were in poor condition. The station itself is so featureless that the box was the one thing that you remembered.

That should have been a listed building!
