  1. Both the actual tower as well as the engineers drawings . Essentially a PL1 D30 design with 6 foot top (pyramid) instead of the usual 4 foot .
  2. The prototype for the third pylon is located just behind the Hornby Margate factory, 33kV route at Westwood and features feeders to the substation opposite.
  3. The world of Triang covered such an extensive variety of products which have fascinated me since childhood. Due to space and storage I built a small compact diorama to capture those wonderful catalogue images , even the scenic scatter materials are Triang/Hornby while several of the Model-Land buildings are original preproduction samples . Rovex were certainly responsible for enlightening the minds of countless children up and down the land .
  4. I know a couple of people who work in the industry, they supplied the engineers drawings and blueprints .
  5. Substation feeders and grass feeders in perfect harmony .
  6. Substation feeders and grass feeders in perfect harmony .
  7. The shops and townhouses have a real charm about them , still very sought after to this day they fetch a premium made or unmade .
  8. Yes , it originally took the conductors down from 4 to 2 just before the junction .
  9. Hope one day you can recover it , those buildings are getting harder to find in good condition. Triang only produced relatively few of each kit .
  10. Bottom right appears to be a Model Land medium shop featuring older Victorian upper levels.
