LOL. Obviously too many books in your library!

I am also looking at modelling a version of Midhurst (provisionally named 'Midhirst & Easebourne') and found this to be very interesting. I haven't conducted the in depth research that you appear to have done but have read the Various Middleton Press books that related to this location. Somewhere I managed to acquire an amazing book solely about Midhurst station, its people and infrastructure. 'Going off the rails. The Country Railway in West Sussex' by Bill Gage, Michael Harris & Tony Sullivan. It is an ex-library book published by West Sussex Papers (ISBN 0-86260-400-1).

Apart from the usual pictures, found elsewhere, there are photos that I hadn't seen before - including a good shot of the approach Road and entrance to the 2nd LBSCR station. I particularly liked the images of pages from the West Sussex Gazette and and reproductions of various notices related to the lines into the town.

I am considering a 'What if...' model and have found this oddball publication amazingly useful. The copy that I have is pretty tatty and has had at least one page removed - the one that had the library lending date stamps sheet attached. I have been unable to find a date of publication but it would appear to be somewhere around the 1980s.

If you don't have a copy I can scan some pages and send them to you.

Best regards
