Could be Selby. 63440 was there at one time. http://www.railuk.info/steam/getsteam.php?row_id=16981 And it had a turntable. http://www.railwayarchitecture.org.uk/Location/Selby/Selby%20Web%20Images/selby-engine-shed-ground-pl.jpg

That looks more like a road off a turntable ( it's at an angle to the back wall ). From the images of West Hartlepool on the net it looks more like a straight through shed. North Blyth? https://www.google.co.uk/search?client=tablet-android-pega&biw=960&bih=600&tbm=isch&sa=1&ei=_orwWNiNDerZgAa3krTADQ&q=north+blyth+engine+shed&oq=north+blyth+engine+shed&gs_l=mobile-gws-img.3..0.36558.39087.0.40060.9.9.0.0.0.0.119.751.6j3.9.0....0...1c.1j4.64.mobile-gws-img..0.2.220...0i13k1.IYX4B05LGk0#imgrc=f8tJ97ce3pNesM:

Deleted duplicate post!

Before you get to far, remember to drill some holes in the cross members to pass wire through. And possibly a couple of cross braces to stop the frame twisting.

Went to the local farm today. They're doing an animal exchange with a farm near Chenobyl.

Not sure but I guess it could be handy to have three arms in the army. Also, the chap in the middle looks like he's got Paddington Bear on his shoulder! :-)

I've seen this same\similar view in a book somewhere. Possibly one of Iain Rices or Barry Normans Layout Design books.

http://www.fioredeiliberi.org/antique-swords-uk/for-sale/1885-6/ Description :- "An 1885 pattern cavalry troopers' sword, by Weyersberg of Solingen, with copious markings, dating the sword to 1886 and initially being issued to the 1st Dragoon Guards. Sadly missing its scabbard now, but in superb condition regardless, with a bright blade, very clear markings to both sides of the blade ricasso and various parts of the hilt........" Link to image above.

The .PDF file says that the hilt of the 1885 version was re_used on 1890 version Sounds like your brother was still using it after that date!

See this image as well. Same engraving marks. british 1885 pattern cavalry trooper's sword 5th dragoon guards for drill purposes http://www.fioredeiliberi.org/antique-swords-uk/for-sale/1885-6/

Level crossing stupidity...
Shadow replied to Katier's topic in UK Prototype Discussions (not questions!)
Another one for the list, although this one looks like a fault with the crossing/signalling as the lights and barrier go down after the event. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/video_and_audio/headlines/38750698 -
As someone who knows nothing about mould making I would like to ask the following (possibly simple/stupid/obvious) questions. 1 How do you make a mould? 2 Are they hand made/engraved? 3 Milled user CNC or something similar? 4 Could you take an export from a 3D CAD package and CNC direct from that? 5 What material/metal are they made from? 6 What sort of plastic is used for injecting into the moulds? Thought of another, any pictures! Thanks in advance for any answers. It's just the engineer in me is curious! Dave

I agree with what you are saying, but on the opposite side, if you can produce a wagon as you are saying at £10-12 a go, there will be a market for them. Mainly because people will be able to afford them and if you do want that large number of items then it's the only way to get it. Second point is that even if the quality was not up to the latest standards, if it's the only way you can get that volume, it will sell. I guess a bit like Hornby's Railroad range.

Kilnhurst may be the place you're thinking off. Look for Kilnhurst Tip on page. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kilnhurst

Well, that was post number 1304, on page 53, dated 26th July 2016. We've been some many places with WNR since then that I can't keep track.
