    In response to my earlier comment re chimneys. Part of visit to SRPS today and treated exceptionally well with grateful thanks to all escorting and letting me see inside the NBR Saloon too.

    Never heard "scotcher" in context of placing scotches. In Scotland they were almost positively discouraged and spoked wheels on many private owners were plated over due to potential damage. Scotches could fracture/damage spokes apart from the risk to life and limb placing one in situ?

    Unfortunately real job has kept me from volunteering at Lincolnshire Wold Railway but a recent Saturday meant clearing an old gate at Pear Tree Lane in anticipation of extending further South towards Louth. Fair to say the railhead has moved significantly too and is approaching the other side of the lane. A recent clearance means a view impossible for many years is back.

    Not sure about length of individual coaches but train pretty much filled Platform 1 this AM 6 definitely fills the station, from this older image. From speaking to friend at station suspect the noise complaints won’t be far off

    Ex M&NB stock covered extensively in early NBR Study Group Journals, message me if interested. Oddly an ex M&NB coach was grounded and ended up as Tote office in Hull at Hull KR Craven Park. When redeveloped it was rescued as pile of bits and went to Butterley though when I last asked they had no idea of its existence The other coach at same site was ex GCR and ended up in Ruddington.
