    Thanks for the detailed information Rangers. I tend to refer to the area as Barford Hill as that was the name of the substation where EMEB supplied BSC with power for the electric draglines and which stood in the field below the sidings with access from th A6003. I worked for EMEB. You are correct that the picture was taken from the Station Road junction with the A6003 and Storefield cottages away to the left. Geoff

    45049 (9T27) heads for Corby past the exchange sidings at Barford Hill, Storefield, just north of Kettering, 09:45 30/4/75. There is nothing left there now save the single line to Corby although it has been reported this week that Network Rail are to enter into consultation regarding the re-doubling of the line to Corby from Kettering to increase capacity for both freight and passenger traffic.

    Dapol 'Western'

    geoff replied to Andy Y's topic in Dapol

    Has no one suggested Western Front or has that already caused too many battle lines to be drawn? Geoff

    Gilbert, don't be fobbed off with the sucking of wind through the teeth and doleful shaking of the head when the washing machine 'technician' arrives. Our machine is well over 16 years old and still going strong, just like the navvy's broom. New motor, new control board, whatever, all courtesy of the British Gas maintenance plan. I think the case is the original!!!!! Geoff
