heh CC.. thanks for the reply .. how did you acquire the info please? is there somewhere online available to mere mortals to obtain such gen? regards.

is it possible that I caught of glimpse of this loco (70099) heading east to west along the hope valley line yesterday morning about 11:30 (the 28th) double heading with a class 60 in DB red?... it was a fair distance away and I only managed a glimpse between trees.

wonderful memories. thanks for posting.

maybe it would be a good idea to have a separate place to put all our conversion photos so that they build up into a coherent workbench type thread?

hi stewart, many thanks for the further info; it's all useful. jeremy, the drawings would be a great help to me. my email is; peakexperience@live.co.uk regards. peak

hi stewart/eddie et al; indeed photos of corrour pre 1970 are very difficult to find. i've not come across a single one showing 'the house' portion in original brick so maybe it never was? i really wish i could find a definative answer. it's integral to the date of my layout. anymore help would be greatly appreciated.

hi all, i'm modelling corrour station on the west highland. after studying a number of photographs it is apparent that at some stage the signal box exterior was finished in red brick to be replaced at some point by, possibly, a concrete render or breeze blocks. would any of you guys know in what year this change took place? also, the signalmans' house displays the concrete render/breeze block facade in all the photos i've seen even those where the box is finished in brick. could anybody tell me, was the signalmans' house originally, when built, finished in the red brick or with the concrete/breeze blocks? any links to photos of corrour in the 1970s and before this would be greatly appreciated. i've not had much success locating photos from the 50s or 60s. cheers all.

hi im dean...i have already built one model since scrapped of 'killin' in 'oo' (yes i know, that old chesnut!).. i am now embarking of a model of Corrour on the West Highland in 'n' gauge using Kato unitrack.

there is video footage of a class 20 at killin on the cinema train...i may be wrong but it could be double heading with a class 27...my memory deserts me on this point.
